2. Collaborative Design: A Persona Exercise Approach
-
Elif Tinaztepe
und Marie Østergård
Abstract
Collaboration, in its broadest sense, is an exchange. Good listening skills, an open mind and the ability to get comfortable with uncomfortable situations lie at the core of good collaboration. Elif Tinaztepe (Associate Partner, Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects) and Marie Ostergard (Library Director, Aarhus Public Libraries) were invited to discuss their approach to collaborative design at the IFLA Library Buildings and Equipment Satellite Conference in Chicago in August 2016, one year after the launch of the award winning Dokk1 Library in Aarhus, Denmark (Figure 2.1). Both were intensely involved in the collaborative design process between the library, architects, users and a wide range of stakeholders over the previous 10 years (Figure 2.2). Their engaging and fruitful workshop was designed to help the seminar participants gain insight into one of the collaboration tools successfully employed by Tinaztepe and Ostergard to understand users’ needs and assess the likelihood of success for a potential built space. Their approach is detailed in this chapter.
