Integrating AI and spatial analysis for resilient and inclusive 15-minute cities
This study explores the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and geospatial tools to design 15-min cities, focusing on proximity, public space quality, environmental resilience, and inclusion. Using the post-industrial Young City district in Gdańsk, Poland, as a case study, the research integrates semantic segmentation (DeepLabv3) and AI-driven object detection for evaluating public space quality, flood simulation modeling (InVEST UFRM) fo…
Urban games and ageing people. Designing better places for community
As the global population ages, urban design must adapt to address the evolving needs of older adults. With life expectancy increasing and birth rates declining, many cities are experiencing a demog
Contemporary approaches to healthy and livable public spaces
Current urban conditions are profoundly influenced by climate change, environmental issues, and pandemics, highlighting the need to create spaces that promote resident well-being. Health, a multidisciplinary concept, focuses on elements that make spaces livable and encourage healthy behaviors. This study, conducted within the PRIN2020 #20209F3A37 SUMMA Urban Impact Unit project, aims to identify approaches to designing healthy and livable public …

Place Identity And Creative District Regeneration
The aim of the paper is to illustrate the concepts of place identity and creative regeneration assuming that place identity is a fundamental factor in creative operations of transformation.
Placemaking, livability and public spaces. Achieving sustainability through happy places
Livability of places is set by many factors which are in turn influenced by a variety of elements - both tangible and intangible - concerning the area in question and its surroundings. One of these factors is constituted by urban happiness, which, together with the term sustainability meant in its wide meaning, constitutes a key concept in placemaking. In this respect, a new attention to urban happiness has been given but often in terms of theore…
Waterfronts Revisited
Urban transformation, socio-economic regeneration and participation
The creative city is a city able to generate economies of innovation, culture, research and artistic production, and strengthen its own identity capital. Looking at the experiences of creative cities, it may be observed that they revolve around the design, promotion and activation of urban areas established due to their particular local characteristics. Those areas become creative clusters as a result of economic and structural innovation, which …
Urban history and cultural resources in urban regeneration
In recent decades, the role of culture and history has often become a driving factor in the process of urban regeneration. The focus on culture and history as factors in regional transformation has been particularly extensive in response not only to competitiveness among cities but also to sustainability requirements in the cultural sector. In the same perspective of this approach, culture in its broadest sense assumes a decisive role in construc…
Planning and Place in the City
Cultural tourism and creative regeneration
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the concept of the creative city, the factors conditioning creativity in cities and how they stimulate urban innovation and local development. Furthermore, by way of examples, the paper aims to illustrate two emblematic case studies and the main elements which were considered for the sustainable urban regeneration. Design/methodology/approach The paper gives both a theoretical contribution on the re…
Creative urban regeneration between innovation, identity and sustainability
The proposed study aims to investigate the concept of the creative city: who are the drivers and what are the factors conditioning creativity in cities and how do they stimulate sustainable urban regeneration and innovation. In the framework of the creative clusters of events, the case study serves to illustrate the Milla Digital project in Zaragoza (Spain), in which place identity and creativity play a fundamental role. The urban transformation …
PlaceMaker
The contemporary city is characterized by complexity, simultaneity and instability, producing situations of transience and transformation (Graham, 1998; Nasar, 1998; Christensen, 1999). Rather than being an artificial construct, the city is a set of habits, customs and lifestyles. These elements are interrelated, not to be viewed individually, but subsumed in the identity of place and the identification of the city (Carter et al., 1993; Nijkamp &…
