Urban terroir and placemaking: Transferring a rural concept into an urban one ; Urban terroir och platsutveckling: att överföra ett ruralt koncept till ett urbant
Urban planning faces the challenge of preserving city identities due to rapid urbanization and globalization, which often leads to the homogenization of urban landscapes but also the loss of place identity and attachment. This study explores the concept of urban terroir as a potential solution to this issue. Urban terroir encompasses the unique blend of physical, cultural, social, and historical elements along with the interaction of people with the public space that defines a neighbourhood or city. This concept is inspired by terroir, which in the context of winemaking, stands for the combination of elements including soil, topography, climate and craftmanship that make a wine’s unique taste. By leveraging urban terroir in placemaking, cities can restore local character, strengthen community ties, and enhance social dynamics. The current research on urban terroir is very scarce and needs to be explored further, this study aims to provide new insights and perspectives to the topic. Through qualitative and quantitative methods, this research investigates urban terroir's key components and its application in placemaking. An Interview with policymakers provides insights into historical context, cultural significance, and urbanism policies, revealing the challenges and opportunities in preserving city identity. A survey of 125 respondents was conducted in the suburban city of Paris and reflects community perspectives, highlighting the importance of green spaces, social bonds, and local values in defining urban identity. The findings underscore the significance of nature, architecture, history, culture, and community values including social ties and networks in shaping urban terroir. Then, the study frames recommendations for implementing urban terroir into placemaking. By identifying the urban terroir of a place and capturing the essence of the area, it is possible to use those values in placemaking in order to enhance the local character and dynamics of a place. This study contributes to urban planning practices by ...
