Genius Loci
What is it?
Genius Loci is the creation of interactive digital maps that create data bank to inform the future urban development of Šančiai district. The maps are a tactic to safeguard against repeated violations of the the public interest by Municipal and private developers in which places are seen as 'tanbula rasa' in which profit value is extracted. Each map reflects the local people, place, stories and nature as created by local people. Together, the maps create conditions for more active participation in democratic processes, strengthening and enabling collective citizenship. The target group of the project is the activation and energization of the residents of Šančiai.
Who is it for?
Genius Loci is addressed to the local communities, architects and designers responsible for the public space, contractors and builders, local businesses, visitors and tourists, cultural and educational institutions. The project aims to create a spirited and attractive public space that reflects the unique identity and culture of neighbourhoods.
