    Abstract
    Home is the familiar every-day world where we find a sense of belonging and worth. It is critical that town planners have an understanding of what home means to individuals and communities and the implications that this holds for planning practice. In this reflective piece, Dr. Thompson explores different notions of home and the way that change, which is a central concern of planning, impacts on these meanings. She suggests how planning practitioners can better appreciate the significance of home and as a consequence, respond humanely and appropriately to this complex person-place relationship.
     
    Le foyer est le symbole familier et journalier apportant les sentiments d'appartenance et de valeur. II est important que les urbanistes cernent bien la notion de foyer telle qu'elle est comprise par les citoyens et les communautés, et donc les conséquences que cette notion renferme. Dans cet article j'explore les diverses notions de foyer et leurs influences respectives sur l'urbanisme. En comprenant mieux la notion de foyer, les urbanistes seront en mesure de répondre de façon plus humaine à la relation complexe existant entre la personne et le lieu.
