Forward Footing - Experimentation


We began thinking about our new project Forward Footing during a walk in Northampton


We looked at details


thought about platforms


and staging posts for interventions.


We discussed where people might make


 a temporary intervention during a walk.


In Kettering we spent more time exploring urban, everyday spaces


ledges, windowsills, greenery, disregarded areas and signage.


We also explored a range of easily obtainable items that held 'making on the move' potential as we want to create a kit that is portable, fun, easy to use, inspirational and accessible.


We met local people during both walks and shared some of our thoughts and observations to gauge whether we were on the right track with the contents of our kit and how it might benefit a wide range of ages and interests.


We came away from these two walks with a library of ideas for the kit.


We planned that our next three walks would be trial walks to test out some of these ideas. We'll be blogging about these walks and our progress in weekly posts over the next few months - so check in with us again soon!
