Origins of the term

The term co-creation stems from thinking in the 1980’s to the 1990’s where academics started to look closer at the role of the customer in the development of products, first referred to mainly as co-production. The first paper appearing later in Journal of Marketing. Vol. 67, No. 1. Entitled Psychological Implications of Customer Participation in Co-Production (Bendapudi, N. & Leone, R. P).

This approach soon developed into the more familiar term customisation, referring to products with elements of their design being open to customers changes. Firat, Fuat, Dholakia, and Venkatesh are said to have introduced this concept of customerization “as a form of buyer-centric mass-customization and state that it would enable consumers to act as a co-producer”. The term co-creation itself was initially framed as a market strategy to transform value propositions by Kambil and co-authors in Reinventing Value Propositions (Kambil, Ginsberg and Bloch 1996).

Wider uses of the term

Later the term was more clearly used in Co-creation: A new source of value (Kambil, Friesen and Sundaram 1999) discussing how the internet has started to enable its role in product development from car manufacture to furniture design. The process has also been applied to education, with the process of students' feedback, opinions, and other resources such as their intellectual capabilities and personalities, integrated alongside institutional resources (Dollinger, Lodge, and Coates 2018). Others such as Pieters and Jansen in 2013 point out that the term has been used with different meanings in different fields and define complete cocreation as being when the end user plays an active role as part of a continuous process.

Use of the term in the built environment

In 2023 in her article What Is Co-Creation in Architecture and Urban Planning? Maria-Cristina Florian pointed out that projects in the built environment naturally involve a wide number of actors working in collaboration, though the word is increasingly used as a buzzword, siting a number of co-creation examples from Bangladesh to Amsterdam. Whilst Maria Lorena Lehman relates co-creation to a being one form adaptive urban architecture and its increasing role city planning in her article Urban Architecture – A Design Process of Co-Creation.

The role of co-creation has been increasingly used a tool in the environmental and governance fields to enable the transitioning of cities in to more sustainable developments, where residents empower themselves to engage with and improve their environments. The primer on applying transition management in cities called Co-creating Sustainable Urban Futures discusses these very processes in detail (Frantzeskaki, Hölscher, Bach, Avelino 1998).

From collaboration to co-creation

In collaboration there is potentially a hierarchy, that exists from the project framework or preconceived ideas of brief and what is needed, for example a building. In co-creation the difference perhaps is that it either occurs before any kind of brief has formed or goes back before the brief, where there is almost no preconceived idea of what is to be delivered. Effectively going back to raw basics or grass roots of a project, with-out predefined roles for designers, community, occupants, planners etc as there might be in for example community or public engagement projects.

The lesser hierarchical approach of what might be considered co-creation in the architectural or built environment context perhaps allows for unexpected solutions, or out of the box thinking. Because of the involvement of residents, or occupants of the area or building from the earliest point of conception it also in a similar way to Pieters and Jansen’s definition allows the future users of the space to effectively design their approach with the help of facilitators.
