The City of Lausanne and its schools and colleges are facing various problems with former playgrounds. These spaces that represent valuable real estate are not used at weekends or during the holidays. This was creating all sorts of unwanted activity from unwanted users. Large concrete surfaces were creating hot spots that were unsuitable for children's play, etc. Hence, the campaign was to consult the populations concerned and renovate, including pupils, parents, teachers, and educators. The organisers opted for a graphic recording to gather the needs expressed and pass them on to the designers.

It was a particularly refreshing mandate for me because most of the participants were children aged 5 to 9. It was an explosion of creativity! The ideas for illustrations were very clear and came from everywhere. Children even came up to me to suggest drawings or ask me to draw them into the graphic.

The experience made me want to work more with children. It was great to see how spontaneously and effortlessly they have everything that so many companies are trying to develop, with varying degrees of difficulty: thinking 'out of the box', being 'disruptive' and creative, asking questions and challenging the status quo, etc. Children really are kings in this field and I'm delighted that the City of Lausanne is including them in the consultation process and taking their opinions seriously.
