Abstract	The smart city paradigm is the source of a major shift and transformation engine of urban technological innovation with dynamic environmental responses. The rapid and continuous development and intrusion of technologies in city life have pushed the city on a smartification path. In this context, the imperative of quality of life has emerged as the central tenet of urban development. The onset of the quality of life imperative, most closely associated with the need to ensure person-environment interaction in an urban context, gradually leads toward the emergence of a new concept and a new logic in urban design, i.e., the empathic cities logic. Against the backdrop of the case of the Line City (Saudi Arabia), this chapter conceptualizes the process of attaining the quality of life imperative through urban smartification. © 2025 selection and editorial matter, Anna Visvizi and Hanna Godlewska-Majkowska; individual chapters, the contributors.
