Lefebvre's Production of Space

Lefebvre's "Production of Space" theory suggests that space is actively created and shaped through social processes, interactions, and human activities, rather than being just a neutral container. It emphasizes that space reflects power dynamics, economic interests, cultural practices, and societal values. By producing space, people influence how areas look, function, and are experienced, making space a product of human choices and social relations. This perspective encourages us to see urban environments, neighborhoods, and public areas as outcomes of complex social performances rather than fixed or natural backdrops.
