History Local Businesses 3F is an audiovisual project that collects the voices and experiences of local businesses in the Tres Forques neighbourhood of Valencia. Through a documentary video, shopkeepers from different generations are interviewed to learn about their daily lives, their memories and their perspectives on the future, thus creating a collective narrative of commercial life in the neighbourhood.

The work is carried out through direct contact with the people who run the shops in the area, both long-established and more recent ones, conducting the same interview with all of them to construct a collective narrative. The aim is to explore the neighbourhood’s relationship with its commercial fabric and recognise its essential role in the neighbourhood’s identity.

Commissioned by the Tres Forques–Vara de Quart Neighbourhood and Cultural Association, the project seeks to pay tribute to those who, through their daily work, have kept the spirit of local commerce alive, resisting the changes and economic crises of recent decades.

The European EBENTO project aims to develop an integrated digital platform to coordinate and manage energy performance contracts in the building and renovation sector, providing a one-stop shop that responds to the needs of all actors involved.

In order to incorporate the contributions of potential users from the beginning, a co-creation methodology is elaborated under the User Centred Design (UCD) approach, allowing the 4 pilot cities involved to replicate it in their context. The implementation of the methodology is structured in several formats, including focus groups with users/beneficiaries of the energy refurbishment to identify needs and define adapted solutions, and a multi-sector workshop that validates and prioritises EBENTO’s functionalities, establishing a roadmap for the development and improvement of the digital product.

InPlan is a data-driven urban planning tool that enables municipal administrations to develop planning from an integrated perspective based on indicators of mobility, housing, land use, public space, culture, society, water and waste.

At Carpe, we are responsible for incorporating specific indicators that are useful when considering governance and citizen participation processes related to planning. In addition, we coordinate a set of strategic actions aimed at facilitating the collaborative design of InPlan in conjunction with the various agents in the innovation ecosystem of the city of Valencia.

In collaboration with: Arqueha, JJHB and the Universitat Politècnica de València.

A digital platform designed to facilitate and improve the co-design processes of cooperative housing.
