| Summary: | The research analyzes the literature by questioning the common denominator between “place and the new” through the concepts of experience and meaning to expand and deepen the existing knowledge on the meaning of place in the production of place. The paper discovers current approaches and notions in the place-new relationship and identifies leading keywords, authors, documents, sources, organizations, and references. It presents a systematic literature review based on bibliometric data in the context of place concept research. The analysis conducted on 27 May 202327 May 2023, with the concepts of place, new, experience, and meaning, covers the bibliometric data of 870 publications which included English articles and book chapters published since 1992 and chosen from specific research categories on the Web of Science. Documents published before 1992 without available content were excluded. Findings show an increasing tendency towards the concepts of sustainability, place-making, place attachment, urban regeneration, architectural design, and cultural heritage. While the number of investigations concentrating on landscape and COVID-19 has increased; concepts like everyday life, emotions, behavior, urban politics, phenomenology, design research, and displacement have been discovered as current research topics. This paper is potentially useful for future theoretical and practical work to create meaningful places and contributes to the further implementation of design and planning studies.
