“Living Lab”—An Urban Design Approach with Community Participation. The Case Study of Quy Nhon, Vietnam
In today’s ongoing urbanization and 4.0 industry, there is an increasing demand on urban design approach to be innovative and inclusive to handle these emerging issues. As an answer to these challenges, and in order to co-create innovation through the involvement of aware users in a real-life setting, the concept of living labs has emerged. However, to date, the definition of “Living Labs” is different between fields and regions in the world. Some interpret the Living Lab as an approach, others as a single project, and some as a specific place—and some still do not know. In this paper, to better understand this concept and its practical application, we present our overview of previous literature on this topic and then we recount the specific situation in Vietnam through three Living Lab workshops conducted in Quy Nhon city, Binh Dinh province, Vietnam in the last three years. Since then, we have tried to come up with an empirically based definition of a contextual living laboratory concept that is appropriated for Vietnam. We also conclude with a discussion on the role and significance of the living laboratory in implementing urban planning, urban design and landscape projects in Vietnam.
