Its number is enormous with hidden potentiality and the capacity of becoming the cornerstone for the city of tomorrow. But the existence of urban void in already planned development is alarming. Now a day city grows spontaneously in the developing context to meet the everyday need with acute shortage of amenities. All the development is not possible to be measured under top-down planning process. So, our planned development should be the best within our reach, but that is not the reality. There is many flaws exist in public space planning. Especially found in the planned residential area. Where these are given but not used properly. Such spaces could be unused not only because of their limited functionality but also because of the fact that the public eye does not perceive them at all. The aim of the research is to find the form of the transformation of open space into the urban void in a planned residential area of Khulna through addressing user preferred local Place making process. Based on case study, this study finds that how urban void could be addressed through the lens of place making through in-depth observation & place performance evolution. The upshot is made up of a comprehensive guideline for rethinking Urban Void as a catalyst for ensuring future urban development.
