Placemaking and Public Space Design: Unlocking Place Potential

Urban planning: Understanding and maximising place potential

Placemaking is about creating spaces that are both welcoming and comfortable for residents and tourists.

This skill is becoming more important as we become more aware of the need for sustainable urban areas.

This two-week course at Lulea University of Technology will teach you everything you need to know about urban planning and the climatic effects.

Learn more about the urban microclimate impact

This course will examine how academic research and design policy influence best practice in urban design.

These training materials will provide you with a solid foundation in placemaking for sustainable tourist destinations, residential spaces, and help you to analyse (and then maximize) place potential.

Structured study of microclimates and placemaking

The course focuses on three key themes. It lays them out clearly and gives you an understanding of how urban areas and microclimates interact.

You'll begin by learning about urban planning policy frameworks, from international agreements to local policies. Then, you'll be taught in-depth lessons about the theoretical underpinnings that shape successful places.

Finally, you will be able to apply the knowledge to case studies that involve a variety of locations with their own climatic, urban design, and needs.
