Smart Cities and Place Making: The “Sense of Place” in the Implementation of Smart Cities in the Arabian Gulf
This chapter addresses the importance of incrementing the conditions for the existence of a “sense of place”. Historically, the sense of place was a not-planned emotional condition. It formed through lengthy processes not replicable in the conscious act of founding a contemporary city. This chapter analyzes different implications of smart city. It expands the analysis to the differences between smart city and smart growth, elaborating on some of the theoretical approaches. A pilot survey has been directed to urban design and architectural professionals and academics. The results are then compared with the projects of two of the most significant smart cities of the Gulf, Lusail in Qatar and Masdar in the UAE.
