Summary/Abstract: The article addresses the problem of unused industrial urban spaces – based on the example of Sofi a and its possibilities for reuse – by analyzing the links and interactions between the creative industries and (post)industrial structures. It presents the results of practical research and projects on the subject, and discusses the problems confronted by the future development. A hypothesis is confirmed – and its applicability to Sofia – that the “creative (post)industry” can form a complex spatial, social and economic system that can replace the industrial one.
