John Higson and Marie Eriksson from Wasted Space are experts at dynamic sustainable innercity development and creating empowerment platforms for consumers and producers.

Wasted Space is a concept that is based on cooperation between ordinary people, politicians and decision makers regarding creative and sustainable inner city planning and development. Through utilising and developing unused or derelict urban sites we can together creative more dynamic, lively and diverse cities.

Wasted Space are currently working on a project plan with a variety of partners, for a group of targeted wasted spaces. All over Europe there are cities and villages filled with "wasted spaces" - a variety of buildings and places both large and small that either lie empty and unused or could be used more creatively than they are today. Many of these places are often forgotten by the cities decision makers but are well known by the cities inhabitants.
