Cognitions was invited as a guest to Placemaking Week Europe 2025 in Reggio Emilia, Italy, joining an international gathering of practitioners working across public space, urban regeneration, civic participation, and community-led design. As part of the event, we were featured as a guest on Urbanistica Podcast, hosted by Mustafa Sherif. The discussion explored cities as living systems shaped by people, ecology, memory, culture, and local intelligence.

The conversation focused on systems thinking in urban design, collective intelligence, and the role of interdisciplinary practice in creating more meaningful, adaptive, and resilient urban environments.
