reSITE is a global platform connecting people and ideas to improve the urban environment.

About reSITE

Cities are the sum of designers, developers, artists, citizens, public officials, entrepreneurs, and the displaced, but rarely do each of these constituencies gather in the same room or even speak the same language, and cities suffer for it.

reSITE is literally that room.

Since its genesis in 2011...

reSITE has set itself the goal of making our cites more liveable and lovable.

Our events, stories, talks and podcast sit at the intersection of architecture, urbanism, politics, culture, city-making, design, technology, development and economics. We feature thought leaders whose work pushes the boundaries on how we build, design, regenerate and create life in cities, and frame them through many lenses, convening them in one place. All to make our cities more livable, competitive, resilient, inclusive, mobile and designed with humans in mind to protect public space, architecture, and sustainable development in cities.

We [re]think life in cities like no one else.

Shared Cities : Creative Momentum

Together with 11 partners from 7 cities, we explore the potential and limits of sharing in urban design.

Who are we?

reSITE was started because we wanted to listen closer. We were growing tired of what is known as a classic architecture, landscape or urban design firm. We wanted to see how useful we can be in the making of a city by providing new insight with a startup mentality, without profit in mind. Could we create links between professional groups or ideas where other people didn’t see them? We found is that we can remake the city if we listen to people, help them define the problem—and help them act.

We always start with 'it's possible,' and never begin with 'no.'

What Does reSITE Mean?

At our second event, a pretty famous architect stepped on a reSITE stage in front of about 600 people and said something like this: “reSITE. I really hate this name. What does it mean - reSITE? Who came up with this?” We had to laugh. The beauty of this name is that it can mean whatever we want it to relative to cities and sites. We want you to be inspired to reTHINK, reLEARN, reIMAGINE, reDO, reGENERATE the city—your city—when needed.

Who is in our network?

We have network of over 500 global experts and thought leaders who are rethinking and remaking cities at every scale, restoring their respective communities, and seeking ways to rejuvenate the urban environment while reaching for sustainability and resiliancy.
