Place By Design
presented by AUTODESK
The SXSW Eco Public Space Design Competition
View all 15 Finalist projects at the Place by Design Lounge in the 1st floor Palazzo.
Place by Design honors visionary design work that achieves a positive community impact
through the creation or re-imagining of public spaces.
Placemaking and related initiatives such as tactical urbanism and public interest design
focus on strengthening our connection to place by making it more accessible, communitycentered, aligned with nature and even playful. Place by Design highlights projects that
transform the way communities interact with place as a means of inspiring our attendees
to improve their own places.
