Abstract

Starting from the references to Smart Cities and Living Labs included in the Strategic Research Framework of the European Joint Programming Initiative "Urban Europe", the paper tries to outline the basic notions of a more limited reference framework, specifically aimed at fostering an approach to Smart City through an Urban/Territorial Living Lab concept, able to bring out the latent potential of innovation eco-socio-technological (i.e. “EnvironMental”) linked to the rhetoric of "urban smartness". To this end, the paper also describes briefly some issues emerging from a paradigmatic experience of Living Lab for Smart Cities and Territories (the Periphèria Project), highlighting their interest for an innovative spatial planning research perspective.
