OUR STORY
Place. Community. Regeneration
The Foundation got its name thanks to the headquarters, which was located in the area of the revitalized Palace and Park Complex in Siemianowice Śląskie, at ul. Chopina 12, in the historic stables belonging to the complex. It was thanks to the possibility of direct participation in the processes of recovering the history of the Palace and recreating its importance for the local and regional community that we were able to find our place in the puzzle of fates, stories and voices flowing from this unique place. Thanks to the challenges that were successively emerging before us, we were able to meetextraordinary people- entrepreneurs, architects, designers, scientists, local government officials, activists, historians, lovers of the Mieroszewskis and Donnersmarcks, as well as the Palace itself.
This is where we heard, saw, felt and finally understood how important it wasplacethe Palace is for social memory and how important it isworkwe do for him. It is thanks to the complexity and unpredictability of regenerative processes that we dared to reach forpartnershipinternational and domestic, which brought significant value to the content of our work. It was the challenges that we had to face in the area of designing and implementing social changes that motivated us to constantlylearningand developing interdisciplinary connecting competencesdesign, social inclusion and entrepreneurship.
And finally, it was thanks to the Palace, its history and the people involved that we could personally feel what it is to invite againlifeto the historic space, which is rebuilding the community and recreating the energy of a place that a few years ago was an empty, inaccessible and forgotten ruin.
We are proud that we can be part of this extraordinary story and share the rich experiences of working in a real context and for authentic people. We believe that in the long term, we co-create a space for cooperation and drawing wisdom from such processes, in the name of jointly building a future full of opportunities for us today and for future generations.
