LAEP Speaker Series: Mark van der Zalm

Lecture/Readings

“Tactical Urbanism :  Action Sports recreation and the City”   Over two decades of practise have given Mark and his consulting practise a unique perspective on how adults and youth adapt urban environments for recreation.  With work specifically in Parkour, Skateboarding, and BMX facility design – Mark’s team has questioned the current perspective on placing all ‘play’ in parks or sanctioned facilities. Through engagement, observation, and absorption of youth culture – the VDZ+A team has prepared facility design to support socialization, and skill development for non traditional sports. In recent years, greater emphasis on supporting diversity, inclusion of varied backgrounds, skills, and abilities have come centre stage.  A larger push to adapt the city to recreation in a Safe and engaging way.  Making transportation, or a trip to the corner market – more of a recreational experience!
