dc.description.tableofcontentsThis thesis explores the phenomenon of architectural homogenization in urban environments over the globe and its ontological effects on urban citizens. Inspired by personal experiences of urban déjà vu, the research delves into the convergence of architectural aesthetics across various cities worldwide. It examines the historical trajectories and political dynamics that have led to the standardization of urban spaces, drawing parallels from colonial legacies to modern globalization. The study employs a conceptual framework grounded in social science and philosophy, particularly phenomenology, to investigate the subjective experiences of urban dwellers in these homogenized environments. The research questions focus on defining architectural homogenization, understanding the ‘sense of place,’ and exploring how homogenized architecture impacts this sense of place, potentially leading to existential confusion and disassociation. The thesis is structured into five chapters. The first chapter provides a historiographical and literature review, tracing the development of urban planning and the emergence of standardized architectural practices. The second chapter conceptualizes architectural homogenization through globalization theories, highlighting the roles of industrial technology, information communication technologies (icts), and capitalist dynamics in shaping global urban aesthetics. The third chapter delves into the ontological significance of urban spaces, discussing the concept of ‘sense of place’ through phenomenological perspectives. The fourth chapter synthesizes these findings, arguing the negative consequences of architectural homogenization on urban citizens’ sense of place. Finally, the fifth chapter applies these theoretical insights to contemporary urban developments, illustrating the problematic nature of standardized urban aesthetics. This thesis aims to generate a critical conversation about the design of cities, advocating for a more heterogeneous and thoughtful approach to urban planning that considers the ontological well-being of urban citizens.es_ES
