Intro

In this phase you must convert your vision into concrete needs. It is often here the users - in a broad sense - are put into play. Your overall experiences, wishes and visions become in this phase specific priorities.

As a user, it is important to recognize your wishes and feel ownership to the completed project. Therefore, it is important that users help to prioritize needs within the resource framework adopted.

Users can in addition to the staff, for example, be faithful library users, parents of young children, managers and employees from other cultural and educational institutions, active young, local artists and enthusiasts.

Get inspiration for this phase:

The good process with decision making and user involvement.
How to create more life at the library?
The library as an urban developer.
Find assisting tools to the process (Process Tools).

The outcome of this phase should be:

• That a well-planned process for user involvement is implemented and the users' ownership of the building project is guaranteed.

• That the outcome of the process is incorporated into the design of the construction / competition program.
