Mantra

  • Space is the opportunity; place is the

understood reality

– About taking sociological issues into account – Borrow from architecture etc – Implications for design – Minor points, e.g. privacy is not absolute

07 11 28- 19 07 11 28- 20

Place

  • a place is a space which is invested with

understandings of behavioural appropriateness

  • House - home
  • Conference Hall - Concert Hall
  • Community Hall
  • Out of place - not out of space

Space

  • Spatiality is important
  • Shared Knowledge

– Relational orientation and reciprocity. – Proximity and action – Partitioning – Presence and awareness

07 11 28- 23

Place is In Space

  • Places derive from their spatiality
  • But also call up cultural understandings

which help us to frame our behaviour

07 11 28- 24

Place in Social Analysis

  • what these analysts point to in human action

is the how it is framed not only by spaces, but by the pattern of understandings, associations and expectations with which they are infused

Place in the Built Environment

  • Place, as we have described it here, is a central

concern for architects and urban designers.

  • architects and urban designers are concerned not

simply with designing three-dimensional structures (spaces), but with places for people to

  • be. For them, the idea of place derives from a

tension between connectedness and distinction

07 11 28- 26

More Quotes

  • Placeness is created and sustained by

patterns of use; it's not something we can design in...can design for it

  • idea of a sense of place--a communally-

held sense of appropriate behaviour, and a context for engaging in and interpreting

  • action. This is essentially a cultural

phenomenon

07 11 28- 27

Space-less places

  • The distinction between ``space'' and ``place'' is

perhaps most strongly demonstrated by examples

  • f the emergence of place without notions of
  • space. Earlier, we introduced the concept of place

as space invested with social meaning. The spaces can be computational, as well as physical. What remains is the tension between connectedness and distinction which leads to placefulness

07 11 28- 28

Space-less places

  • On-line multiplayer games?
  • Communities
  • Forums
  • MUDS
  • USENET

Ubiquitous Computing

  • Computation in space
  • Distributed
  • Everyware
  • Essence of paper: Must take place into

account

  • Study and design for actual social

environment

07 11 28- 30

Rubrics for Design

  • Spaces are not places
  • Places, not spaces, frame appropriate

behaviour

  • Places have social meaning
  • Different media have different spatial

properties.

  • Space is the opportunity; place is the

understood reality

07 11 28- 31

The Rest?

  • Influential paper
  • Makes important points

– Design for place - not space – There can be places without place

  • Details about MUDS, Usenet etc somewhat

dated

  • Read in context

07 11 28- 32

Next Week

  • Discussion seminar
  • Read the papers
