A clarion call for imaginative action in developing and running urban life and shows how to think, plan and act creatively in addressing urban issues. The book provides a number of British and worldwide case studies and looks at how to challenge contemporary urban problems, through creative thinking and planning. Moving away from a notion of urban regeneration based purely on physical renewal, Landry stresses the centrality of creative processes and the need for a more holistic approach to regeneration. The toolkit is a conceptual framework, designed to provide the reader with the cornerstones of a new mindset, offering new ways to think, approach and tackle urban problems through a range of creative methods. The book will be of interest to urban planners, policy-makers and anybody who shares an interest in creativity and the future of cities.
