About work

The Urban Game is played by chance; the city grows by throwing the dice. Structure of the city is changing by each throw of the dice. It is constantly transforming itself and getting a new look. Our cities are generally influenced by different factors: political powers, global urban plans. This process often seems like a confused display of what can possibly be done. The Urban Game offers a possibility to become a creator of the environment, noticing the differences of the structures and strategies in which we find ourselves.
