Born out of a series of successful projects in partnership with the London Children’s Museum (now the Institute of Imagination), the Bromley by Bow Centre's MyDesign team is formed of adults with varied first hand experience of disability. Over a twelve month period we worked together to develop a strong design literacy and then applying this to a number of projects centred around bringing creativity to the built environment. A project highlight was the self-published and hand finished book entitled Making Amazing Sensory Spaces, viewable below. Other work included design research for the IOI Imagination Pods and a series of steps taken to formalise the group so as to be able to re-convene and offer specialist consultancy for local and city-wide partners delivering projects that require help in creating community buy-in, developing design ideas and adding value, delight and insight into the shared urban landscape.
