The Garden of Privatised Delights catalogue is envisaged as a manual to help communities and the public to reclaim privatised public space. The publication brings together essays, conversations and advice from communities, stakeholders, funding bodies, landowners, policy makers, architects and urban designers to provide tangible ways that we can make public space more inclusive. The role of this manual is to collect ongoing research around the important topic of privatised public space, as well as to give the public greater agency over their spaces. Through this, we aim to generate a much wider conversation around privatised public space and how it can be better designed going forward.
