Kim Dovey FASSA is an Australian architectural and urban critic and Professor of Architecture and Urban Design at the University of Melbourne, Australia, teaching and researching architecture and urban design. Born in Western Australia he received degrees from Curtin University and the University of Melbourne, and a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, USA. He has lectured and broadcast widely on social issues in architecture and urban design. His book Framing Places (2nd ed. 2008) explores theories of place as mediators of power, incorporating case studies of politics of public space, housing, shopping malls and corporate towers. Becoming Places (2010) explores the formation of place identity and develops a theory of place as dynamic assemblage. Urban Design Thinking (2016) is a broad-ranging application of assemblage thinking in urban design. Mapping Urbanities (2017) demonstrates applied research using urban mapping in the production of spatial knowledge. He has made significant contributions to theories of place, homelessness, transit-oriented development, urban density, walkability, informal settlement and creative clusters. He is co-author of the Urban DMA theory of walkability. The Atlas of Informal Settlement (2023) is the first global comparative study of informal urban design, and the theory of inventraset assemblages demonstrates how informal street vending, transport and settlement mesh within global South cities. He is Co-Director of the InfUr- research hub at the University of Melbourne.

In November 2022 he was elected a Fellow of the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia.[1]
