Hardworking public space
The project focus was to promote sustainable and healthy modes of transportation. St Johannesplan is a generous public space that prioritises access for pedestrians, cyclists, and rail commuters while serving as a central meeting point that caters for a wide range of activity through the week and different times of the day. Designed for easy adaptation to cater for temporary events; Malmö’s residents have used the square for everything from skateboarding and eating lunch, to filmmaking and performance.
