  • Develops a theoretical framework based on Lefebvre’s spatial triad.
  • Examines how governance interacts with conceived and lived dimensions of space.
  • Applies assemblage thinking to conceptualize placemaking as a distributed process.
  • Highlights the role of affect in shaping the governance of spaces.
  • Demonstrates how embodied interactions create specific atmospheres in places.
  • Argues that governance often prioritizes conceived space over lived experiences.
