Creative Milieux is the first detailed examination of the urban spatial qualities that support the creative industries, industries which are seen as increasingly important to urban regeneration and economic development. Contributors explore the urban morphologies, building types and qualities of place that attract and retain creative workers and foster creative production, drawing on detailed neighbourhood case studies from North and South America, Europe, Australia, and East Asia. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Urban Design.
The so-called ‘creative industries’ are increasingly being presented as an important tool of urban regeneration and economic development. Until now, research on the clustering of such activities has been limited to economics, geography and urban policy. This book is the first to gather together emerging research in urban design and spatial planning that explores what characteristics of the built form of cities support the distinctive activity patterns of various creative industries, and how and why they cluster together at a range of local scales. The book offers detailed case studies and comparative analyses of creative city neighbourhoods on five continents. Contributions examine urban forms, building types, and other qualities of place that attract and retain creative workers and foster creative production, outlining a range of methodologies for studying them. Taken altogether, Creative Milieux offers new insights for urban design practice, and for its role in wider urban policy. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Urban Design.
