Abstract

Sustainable development is the ultimate goal for policy-makers and place-makers to develop a place. Nevertheless, although many approaches, such as exogenous, endogenous, neo-endogenous, creative cities, and creative place-making, have been studied, realizing a place-based approach requires further research. This study addresses the gaps in these approaches by exploring how a place might be made from a local's perspective. A grounded theory approach was employed to understand the phenomena, and theoretical sampling was applied. Data were collected through interviews, online sharing sessions, and secondary sources. A total of 71 documents were collected and analyzed. Hundreds of open codes were refined to 52 concepts, which later were categorized under 20 sub-dimensions. Next, these sub-dimensions were grouped under eight dimensions and later integrated into three themes – “a creation of stories, a rise of wellbeing, and a sustainable goal”. Lastly, these themes construct a framework for creative place-making. This framework addresses the lacunas of previous studies by illustrating a creative place-making process with the creation of stories, the generations of sense of place and wellbeing, and lastly, addressing the local's problems; this process helps to create a place branding which will motivate more locals to create the stories of their place.
