This thesis explores the management of community gardens during the planning phase, prioritizing development and management processes over final design solutions. It focuses on studying The Municipality of Kranj, where urban community gardens have gained importance due to their social, economic, cultural, and environmental benefits. The thesis draws on six management approaches identified by Fox-Kämper et al. (2018) and investigates whether these established approaches can be applied as design motives for new gardens. The analysis identifies three approaches that are most suitable for locations in Kranj, based on the criteria where community creation is the key. Each approach is assigned an individual design feature, which directly reflects the implemented approach.
