Research 'Urban Sports in the Public Domain'
Supported by the Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie
A feasibility research gives our clients the necessary information to make the right choices, to determine certain policies on public spaces, and to convince local residents and skaters.
Some of the questions we research:
Which location is the most suitable, what can we do on this location, how much will the project cost, who are the possible users, which plans already exist, which functions can we combine, how would participation look like, and when can we start building?

Since 2023, we have been conducting research on the added value of Urban Sports in the city: something that is self-evident to us, but a subject that deserves research, publication and a spotlight. Early 2025, we were informed that our requested follow-up subsidy had been granted by the Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie.
Together with Daniel Casas Valle of Urban Dynamics we will continue to research Urban Sports as a meeting place in the coming year. Not only will we develop a toolbox based on precedents, but we will also do a series of case studies for and with Dutch municipalities, such as the municipality of The Hague, Eindhoven and Hoorn.
Research: Atelier OUI in collaboration with Urban Dynamics
Phase: January 2025 follow-up subsidy received
De maatschappelijke en ruimtelijke opgave is daarbij het vertrekpunt, niet het sportobject. Wat ontbreekt er in een buurt? Welke mensen ontmoeten elkaar nog niet? Welke verbindingen zijn mogelijk met scholen, cultuur, bestaande voorzieningen en het landschap?
​De vier condities helpen om die vragen te vertalen naar ontwerp. Niet door iedere functie vooraf vast te leggen, maar door uitnodigende, robuuste ruimtes te maken die verschillende vormen van gebruik mogelijk maken. Dat vraagt om bewuste keuzes in ligging, inrichting, bereikbaarheid en de relatie met de omgeving. Zo wordt Urban Sports niet het sluitstuk van een ruimtelijk plan, maar een van de instrumenten waarmee je de stad vormgeeft.

Het onderzoek Urban Sports als ontmoetingsplek is uitgevoerd door Atelier OUI en Urban Dynamics met steun van het Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie. Lines by City Legends en Kenniscentrum Sport & Bewegen leverden als inhoudelijke experts een bijdrage aan het onderzoek.
De resultaten zijn vertaald naar een interactieve referentietoolbox, drie gemeentelijke ontwerpstudies en een publiekskrant. Op 20 mei 2026 zijn de inzichten gepresenteerd tijdens een symposium in het Tagorepark in Amsterdam, georganiseerd in samenwerking met de Vereniging Sport en Gemeenten (VSG).
