Sense of Place is a fascinating concept. It has been studied in many different disciplines and from several different perspectives; including geography, phenomenology, and anthropology. Sense of Place is both universal and specific and yet, it is hard to define. In piecing together its history we find a term unique to each individual and yet it has the capacity to unify communities and landscapes. Could it be a unifying theme for sustainability? Perhaps, but first there needs to be more consensus on its meaning. This short history will hopefully begin to help build that consensus.

Autorenporträt
Places serve as the final frontier. I'm Texan, born and raised in Fort Worth. I traveled to the east coast and have lived in Virginia, Washington D.C., and North Carolina since then. I now live in Asheville where I serve as the Director of Student Services. I teach and try to live according to Thomas Jefferson's statement of light and education.
