Infrastructuring Place. Citizen-led Placemaking and the Commons
A proliferation of participatory spatial practices is emerging in cities, as citizens seek alternative forms of urban governance and land use. Characterised by peer-to-peer production and mediated through the use of digital technologies, these practices are part of a larger narrative about the commons, the ways in which citizens participate in them, and the ways in which knowledge is produced and shared. This case-study uses participatory mapping, group interviews and document analysis to explore how participants in two urban gardening projects make place, and probes whether their practices offer new understandings of community-led placemaking. Results emphasise the important role citizens play in creating, designing and maintaining the commons and demonstrate the ways in which individuals and community groups working outside of a professional urban design context expand placemaking into a vehicle for social change.
