Sense of Place

Sense of Place was an ambitious collaboration between art and architecture organisations to explore and capture the social assets of an area, or people’s ‘sense of place’ to inform a master planning process.

The project contributed valuable knowledge to the current debate about the role and value of consultation in the regeneration process. The programme was developed in order to:

* Reveal the richness of social, cultural and work networks;

* Understand the perceptions and meanings people place on neighbourhood;

* Activate new communities of interest that transcend ethnic, religious, age and economic backgrounds.
