- Imaginable landscapes are the path dependent single or multiple symbolic orderings (common assemblage networks) within specific community that pass to the the next generation as generalized knowledge through human or (non-human) mediator to foster a sense of community among the individuals.
- The debates the regarding the Right to the City open of question for the establishment of the new urban actor-civic society as a mediator in the participatory governance model to open a road towards an 'inclusive city'. An application of such actor to the urban planning process creates an opportunity for the realization of the spatially just society; therefore, the spatially just community is a community that both employs a participatory governance model at the local level and surpasses formal/informal functional restrictions towards the mutual partnership of during the neighborhoods lifecycle
- The 町造り(Machizukuri) can be perceived as the process of 'space making' that involve the local (urban) participatory network of residents and non-profit organization (research institutes, universities) organized for the entire urban lifecycle in accordance with the principles of innovation, knowledge and learning . The community involvement in the fusion of planning and design placed in the center of aspect the central role since design absent in the USA communities. Japanese perceive the community design process as the management and maintenance of infrastructural networks between buildings and the urban space during the entire lifecycle to preserve their imaginable landscapes as a collective identity for the future generations.

MSFAU was initially founded as the archeological museum to retain archeological finds of national enterprises in Ottoman Empire. At present this building is a symbol of equality for all in terms of art and architecture education (social) as well as the nostalgia that takes back to the Ottoman times palaces (historical), and rises a sense of national identity among the visitors of Istanbul (political).
The significance of Basilica Cistern, a one of symbols of Istanbul, at present reaches even a supranational scale. Currently, the local population views it as a symbol of technological dominance and centralized power (owing water means owing the gold) of ‘their own past’ (historical), protection from evil spirits (religious) and unequal access to the resources (social).To me it means ‘ the passage between our world and the underworld (realm of Hades)’.
The Dolmabahçe Palace was initially ( in 1856) planned as mixed-use multi-purpose complex that served as a means of separation of Sultan from its own nation. The ‘Dolmabahçe’ literally means ‘the filled garden’. This phrase can be understood as a mixed-use development, one of principles of sustainable community. Other cultures can understood this phrase as ‘gated community in old fashion’ or just view this palace as a simple museum without any complex symbolic definition.
