Developed and developing countries have experienced a comparable trend in the development of cultural creative clusters in recent decades. The notion of cultural creative cluster often comes laden with a host of compositions and spatial forms from cultural districts, creative precincts, milieus to cultural spaces. In many cities of the United States, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region, cultural creative spaces are omnipresent. They form a critical niche for cultural development and increasingly become a driving force to city image and cultural economic production. On the other hand, the geographic scale of these spaces varies from regional development, city to street-level projects, which accommodates the transformation of dereliction of factory buildings into agglomeration of cultural facilities, organic growth of artist village and cultural community in a locality or an entirely new site developed specifically for erecting cultural landmarks for supporting national or local cultural creative industries. The conference will draw attention to this wide range of cultural creative spaces and identify a conceptual framework for revealing the dynamics of their development. The conference also aims at establishing a policy framework for the design, planning and management of cultural creative spaces.
