description City branding has as its objective to create an appealing image for tourists and investors, as well as strengthen local identity of local residents. These goals are achieved through the management and communication of the city’s image. However, the city’s image is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that needs to be conceptualized for its proper management. The objective of this paper is to develop a theoretical analysis to understand the process of construction and communication of the city’s image. Previous research has shown that individuals form their own images of the city, but at the same time share a public image of it. On the other hand, the urban landscape design has proved to be one of the most e ective tools to design and communicate the city’s image. Here, both elements are linked through the theory of the social representation that enables to conceptualize the city’s image as a social construct. This di erent perspective of the city’s image positions local residents as the most important target audience of city branding and the urban landscape as a key element to contextualize and strengthen local identity.

This di erent perspective of the city’s image positions local residents as the most important target audience of city branding and the urban landscape as a key element to contextualize and strengthen local identity.  La marca ciudad tiene como objetivo crear una imagen atractiva para turistas e inversores, así como fortalecer la identidad local de los residentes locales. Estos objetivos se logran a través de la gestión y comunicación de la imagen de la ciudad. Sin embargo, es un fenómeno complejo y multifacético que debe conceptualizarse para su gestión adecuada. El objetivo de este trabajo es realizar un análisis teórico para comprender el proceso de construcción y comunicación de la imagen de la ciudad. Investigaciones anteriores han demostrado que los individuos forman sus propias imágenes de la ciudad, pero, al mismo tiempo, comparten una imagen pública de ella. Por otro lado, el diseño del paisaje urbano se ha posicionado como una de las herramientas más efectivas para diseñar y comunicar la imagen de la ciudad. Aquí, ambos elementos están vinculados a través de la teoría de la representación social, la cual permite conceptualizar la imagen de la ciudad como una construcción social. Esta perspectiva diferente de la imagen de la ciudad posiciona a los residentes locales como el público objetivo más importante de la marca ciudad y el paisaje urbano como un elemento clave para contextualizar y fortalecer la identidad local.  A marca da cidade tem como objetivo criar uma imagem atraente para turistas e investidores, bem como fortalecer a identidade local dos moradores locais. Esses objetivos são alcançados através da gestão e comunicação da imagem de uma cidade. No entanto, a imagem da cidade é um fenômeno complexo e multifacetado que precisa ser conceitualizado para sua adequada gestão. O objetivo deste trabalho é realizar uma análise teórica para entender o processo de construção e comunicação da imagem da cidade. Pesquisas anteriores mostraram que os indivíduos formam suas próprias imagens da cidade, mas, ao mesmo tempo, compartilham uma imagem pública dela. Por outro lado, o design da paisagem urbana provou ser uma das ferramentas mais e cazes para projetar e comunicar a imagem da cidade. Aqui, ambos os elementos estão ligados através da teoria da representação social, a partir da qual é possível conceituar a imagem da cidade como uma construção social. Esta perspectiva diferente da imagem da cidade posiciona os residentes locais como o públicoalvo mais importante da marca da cidade e a paisagem urbana como uma chave elementar para contextualizar e fortalecer a identidade local.  Universidad Nacional de Colombia - Sede Bogotá - Facultad de Artes - Instituto de Investigaciones Hábitat, Ciudad & Territorio 2018-01-01 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pa Artículo de reflexión application/pdf text/html application/xml https://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/bitacora/article/view/52939 10.15446/bitacora.v28n1.52939 Bitácora Urbano Territorial; Vol. 28 Núm. 1 (2018): Gobernanza y Gobernabilidad; 33-38 Bitácora Urbano Territorial; Vol. 28 No. 1 (2018): Gobernanza y Gobernabilidad; 33-38 Bitácora Urbano Territorial; v. 28 n. 1 (2018): Gobernanza y Gobernabilidad; 33-38 2027-145X 0124-7913 eng https://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/bitacora/article/view/52939/pdf https://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/bitacora/article/view/52939/html https://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/bitacora/article/view/52939/70263 /*ref*/BLICHFELDT, B.
