CITY LAB DONOSTIA · DESIGN PROTOTYPESCIENCE / EXPERIENCE / BIOCULTURES

One city.
Many ways to experience.

A lived experience across parks, climate-refuge spaces, streets and university settings. Documentary, photography, invitations and reflection connect different places through one shared question: what is our relationship with the living world?

The city becomes
part of the experience.

The Donostia design prototype brings the Living World Relationship Index, measurement methodology and systems analysis into different city spaces. Each setting can open a different encounter: with a landscape, a photograph, a voice, a shared question or a community.

Wellbeing and regenerative paths are part of the programme, alongside documentary screenings, a photographic exhibition and workshops. Together they create a route for experience and learning.

Experience · co-create · share

Different spaces.
A connected journey.

Understand the starting point

Use the 5-minute Living World Relationship Index, a shared measurement methodology and systems analysis to understand people, places and institutional questions.

Experience the city

Connect photographic interventions, documentary screenings, workshops, QR invitations and wellbeing routes across parks, cultural spaces and university settings.

Reflect & share

Return to the same reflections, exchange lived experiences and listen to biocultural knowledge. Agree what to evaluate and how to share learning honestly.

Your place can join the route

A park. A museum.
A campus. A community.

Each institution can host the part that suits its people and spaces. A photograph outside a museum can lead to a screening inside; a university reflection can open onto a park experience; a workshop can connect those encounters with local knowledge.

Co-design delivery, access, permissions and evaluation with the organisations and communities involved.
