In today’s hyper-digitized environment, the local and the global aren’t so easily defined. Just search ‘locals only’ on Instagram, for example, and you’ll find photos tagged from around the world. So it’s only fitting that urban planning projects, when seeking to activate a new social space, should blur the lines as well. “Democracy in an age of social media, digitalizations, migration etc. asks for so many upgrades—how to plan cities is one of them,” states Mia Lundström, an urban planner and the Project Director of Kalejdohill, an initiative meant to activate a locality in a suburb outside of Stockholm years in advance of a future development.
