Within our current modernized age, there is a need to reunite the collective through place, in an increasingly individualised society. This essay is an analysis of how social interaction can be created in a town through place; by studying why we live in an increasingly individualised society; how to create a social network; and who benefits from these social networks? The social places will connect people to their local town, and to one another. Social networks can be sustainable in the sense that they will remain even if the town changes over time, if they connect a diverse collective which is inherently connected to the town and places within it.
