Transgressing the urban public realm
Greater Dublin
Dublin’s northwest inner city
Me Nanny’s
New and old
The man is nice, we go in to get sweets
She always has a smile for you
Brendan’s Coffee Shop
A lovely smell of fruit
The Luas: very noisy
The sun beats down on you here
A kids about, look around sign
Just more traffic
I don’t really like this
This place really freaks me out
This is scary
The lift is broken and everyone is stuck up the tower
The childhood landscape of public space
• An imaginative world
• A sensory world
• Practical concerns
• Highly sociable space
A snail
A tree full of growth and life
