| Abstract |
This study proposes the ‘Everyday Life Recovery City’ as an alternative framework centering on urban residents’ everyday experiences. Existing urban design discourses have promised communal life through improving physical environments, yet the gap between this goal and residents’ everyday life persists. Drawing on Lefebvre, de Certeau, and Maffesoli, the study establishes time, space, and relationships as essential dimensions of everyday life and diagnoses the structural crises each faces: the collapse of rhythm by social acceleration, the dissolution of place identity through capitalist space production, and the disappearance of weak ties amid declining public life. It examines the limits of physical determinism in existing discourses and argues that citizens’ everyday practices mediate between physical environments and social outcomes. On this basis, it defines the Everyday Life Recovery City and identifies urban design conditions: ‘dwelling time’, ‘informal social infrastructure’, and ‘spatial appropriation by citizens’. This concept is not a paradigm replacing existing discourses, but a complementary effort to theorize qualitative conditions of everyday life they have insufficiently conceptualized. |
