The recreational laboratories are aiming at the collaborative making of a joint cultural material which characterizes the reconfiguration of the symbolical, cultural and social relations with the experienced space. The interest given to the local practices, to the proximity exchanges, to creativity, to Nature, to the bodily experiences, to the development of atmospheres and to the local staging re-enchants the "living together" in our societies. Thus, the recreational laboratories are an opportunity to drive the trans-modern development of cultural projects which are conceived as alternatives to the sport practices of modernity, to the fun and dizzying games of post-modernity and to the planning logics underlying them. The recreational laboratories embody the advent of new ethics and politics of the living-together based on a pragmatic approach of action which has proved a tremendous success with the participants, and which is established according to fine adjustment, translation and mediation. The recreational laboratories plead for a paradigm shift of the territorial action where the existential dimension inherent in the habitability would be set at the heart of the strategies of local development.
