Regionally responsive architecture that connects people to their existing places, communities, and cultures is critical to honoring a location&#8217;s uniqueness and pride. Placemaking\u2014intentional or not\u2014has often catalyzed gentrification and privileged dominant cultures, overshadowing a place&#8217;s unique character and nature.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p41\">Financial engineering drove much of 20th-century real estate development, where designers followed codified, bureaucratized, and homogenized ideas about what a place &#8220;should&#8221; become, often without fully honoring or understanding what\u2019s already there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p41\">Placemaking converges with the principles of authentic peacekeeping, respects existing characteristics, cultures, and social connections, and involves collaborative design <i>with<\/i>, not <i>for<\/i>, stakeholders.
