The research on urban atmospheres goes along with the idea to produce a knowledge that can be useful for urban planners. My presentation acts in the assumption that research should establish a typology of atmospheres if it wants to besome an instrument for planners. I will present three types of urban atmospheres that result from a research project. Discussing the conditions of the emergence of the tree types of atmospheres I will shwo that there are a number of environmental factors that cannot be controlled by urban planners. I conclude that a typology can nevertheless help to understand the elements that influence the appearance of urban atmospheres and therefore facilitate the communication among planners about the lived quality of urban space.
