Urban Mechanics

Urban Mechanics

Think City Urban Mechanics was set up to improve the quality of citizens’ lives by involving them in participatory civic engagement in urban issues solutions ideation and innovation. These community-based solutions promote a better sense of belonging and ownership of public spaces, and reverse the decline of cities, creating quality places where people want to live, work, play and learn.

Leveraging on our placemaking approach, collaborations with multidisciplinary partners such as local councils and ministries, arts and culture practitioners, technology companies and start ups, and more, Urban Mechanics works on a variety of projects across public realm improvement such as the upgrading of mainstreets and laneways, green projects, place planning, grant management and implementation. It also includes space activation such as cultural programmes, and place management that creates spaces for communities to hold events and activities of their own.
