This research paper explores the concept of “placemaking” and its role in strengthening the sense of place in open spaces. Placemaking refers to the collaborative process of designing and transforming public spaces into vibrant, meaningful, and inclusive places that foster a strong connection with the community. By examining case studies, theoretical frameworks, and empirical data, this study seeks to emphasize the value of placemaking in improving open space identity, social cohesiveness, and overall user experience. This study also looks at how placemaking techniques can strengthen a community’s sense of attachment, ownership, and belonging to parks, ultimately helping to create lively and meaningful public spaces. This research analyses 79 articles retrieved from Scopus, Research Gate, Google Scholar, Elsevier, and Lens.org, which were tailored to certain fields of study utilizing the Web of Science Categories offered by the academic database search engine. To identify the main lines of research on the topic of identifying and analysing different components of “Placemaking” to increase the “sense of place” in parks, bibliographic coupling through the VOSviewer software was used. Based on the results of the literature review, a conceptual framework was created, which included a sense of place, cultural inclusion, and human attachment as the dependent variables and sociability, access and linkage, and users and activities identified as independent variables. The research will contribute valuable insights into urban planning and design, providing practical recommendations for creating more engaging and resilient public spaces.

摘要

This research paper explores the concept of “placemaking” and its role in strengthening the sense of place in open spaces. Placemaking refers to the collaborative process of designing and transforming public spaces into vibrant, meaningful, and inclusive places that foster a strong connection with the community. By examining case studies, theoretical frameworks, and empirical data, this study seeks to emphasize the value of placemaking in improving open space identity, social cohesiveness, and overall user experience. This study also looks at how placemaking techniques can strengthen a community’s sense of attachment, ownership, and belonging to parks, ultimately helping to create lively and meaningful public spaces. This research analyses 79 articles retrieved from Scopus, Research Gate, Google Scholar, Elsevier, and Lens.org, which were tailored to certain fields of study utilizing the Web of Science Categories offered by the academic database search engine. To identify the main lines of research on the topic of identifying and analysing different components of “Placemaking” to increase the “sense of place” in parks, bibliographic coupling through the VOSviewer software was used. Based on the results of the literature review, a conceptual framework was created, which included a sense of place, cultural inclusion, and human attachment as the dependent variables and sociability, access and linkage, and users and activities identified as independent variables. The research will contribute valuable insights into urban planning and design, providing practical recommendations for creating more engaging and resilient public spaces.
