The cities are expanding rapidly all over the world. India has also experienced this phenomenon and has continued the pace of growth. The recent trends in spatial growth of the cities are a new phenomenon in Indian urban landscape. The cities in India are witnessing development with the help of private developers for the last couple of decades. Being private properties these are by nature of exercising control have gates and boundaries. In scholarly literature these are called as Gated Community/Gated Development. Authors have argued them from various perspectives of anthropology, law, management and sociology etc. but very little has been discussed about their planning and morphology. Although, the rise of Gated Development is majorly attributed to the sense of fear and need for security, yet architects and urban designers, and even sociologist stress upon other methods to make the neighbourhoods secured. Hence the security aspects are not made part of the research here. The aspects of how these gated development impacts the perception of neighbourhood by residents is not touched upon. The paper discusses the distinction between the gated and non-gated neighbourhoods and also how residents perceive their neighbourhoods at large. For explaining this phenomenon, three neighbourhoods in the city of Gurugram in Haryana state in India have been identified as case study. These are identified on the basis of different morphological images that are identified. Space syntax and space cognition through sketch mapping is used for the analysis of the three neighbourhoods. The paper suggest that the continuity and connectivity of any spatial configuration is of utmost importance to make neighbourhood environment worthy of living life more socially connected.

Old town means an historic or original core of a city which signifies the city’s origin growth. When the city develops and expands its built area, the emergence of a new development center will be inevitable. This study focuses on the connection of the old and new development center of Balikpapan city. In defining the mentioned connection, the authors use Space Syntax theory and depthmapX[net] software to analyze connectivity, integration and choice of the observed networks. Space Syntax analyses helped defining the spatial configuration of the old and the new center of development of Balikpapan city which has higher scores in main connectors and lower scores in local streets which also defines the movement and accessibility of the observed area. It is hoped that this study would be beneficial in guiding the planning and design of the future development of Balikpapan city that is appropriate with its spatial configuration.

ABSTRAK. Pengembangan kota Palembang terus berkembang sejak adanya kegiatan Pekan Olah Raga Nasional PON dan juga SEA Games yang dilaksanakan di kota Palembang. Saat ini Palembang terus berbenah diri dengan menyosong dilaksanakannya kegiatan olah raga Asean Games di tahun 2018 ini. Berbagai pengembangan fisik kota dari dibangunan jaringan LRT (light rapid transit), pembangunan pusat perbelanjaan dan juga hotel-hotel baru hingga peremajaan dan pembangunan ruang terbuka untuk menampung kegiatan spatial dan kegiatan baik masyarakat kota Palembang itu sendiri ataupun untuk kepentingan pariwisata kota Palembang. Perkembangan ruang kota tersebut dirasakan peneliti dikerjakan dengan terburu-buru dan tidak disertai dengan perencanaan yang matang, sehingga menghasilkan produk yang tidak maksimal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti konfigurasi ruang terbuka yang ada di kota Palembang, dan lokasi dari penelitian tersebut adalah ruang terbuka yang sangat terkenal di kota palembang yaitu ruang terbuka kawasan Benteng Kuto Besak. Di dalam ruang terbuka BKB tersebut terdapat beberapa elemen yang tidak sesuai dengan konfigurasi ruang terbuka yang baik, dan ditinjau dari analisis space syntax yang berguna untuk mengukur kualitas spatial, terlihat bahwa di ruang terbuka BKB tersebut tercipta beberapa ruang-ruang mati dan elemen di kawasan tersebut yang cenderung melemahkan kualitas spatial yang ada. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk melihat ruang gerak yang wajar di ruang terbuka BKB, di dalam arsitektur hal tersebut dikenal dengan istilah spatial logic yang berguna untuk melihat arah pengembangan ruang terbuka agar dapat dimanfaatkan secara maksimal bagi space use konfigurasi ruang terbuka kota Palembang. Kata kunci: ruang terbuka, Benteng Kuto Besak, space syntax, spatial logic, space use ABSTRACT. The development of Palembang city has arisen since the National Sporting Event known as PON and also the Southeast Asian games known as SEA games thas is being held in the town. Nowadays the city has transformed itself and constantly changing for the preparation to hold another international sporting event known as Asian games in the year 2018. There are many development that is being done to the city from the building of the new infrastructure of Light Rapid Transit rails across the city and also the development of new shopping malls and even new hotels to the development of the towns open space that is a spatial spot that holds the public event and also has the particular needs to be developed to support the cities tourism. The researcher felt that development that is being done in the city is done carelessly and without careful planning and produces poor spatial products. This research purpose is to analyze the open space configuration carefully and the place that the research is being carried out is a well known open space in Palembang which is the open space of Benteng Kuto Besak, or that is well known as BKB. The elements inside BKB is not appropriate to the spatial configuration of good public space, and through the space syntax analysis to see the spatial quality we can see that there are dead spaces throughout the BKB area and the spatial elements inside the BKB are responsible for them. The purpose of this research is to understand the natural flow of space and to see the spatial logic that is intended for the BKB space. Through the spatial logic, we can also see the best space use designed for the BKB open space configuration pattern in Palembang. Keywords: open space, Benteng Kuto Besak, space syntax, spatial logic, space use

Urbanism today is a synthesis of inheritance, prevalence and futurism. As our inheritance struggles with the rapid transformations and anxiously waits for the future, their conservation becomes an issue related to our cognizance of the genuine relations between tangible and intangible properties. While urban development strategies enormously emphasis the issues on sustainability, social balance, public realm, environment and heritage, the space proxemics of cities are very often ignored. This model is designed in a way that combines analytical techniques of space syntax and cultural context for an objective enquiry into user precise space proxemics of the city and scientifically states the spatial configuration as visible spatial rules or principles of urbanism in the traditional urban cores, thereby evolving a rational approach towards urban interventions. This model caters both for conservation studies and as well for rejuvenation of existing built environments or to design new urban centers for developing traditional urban cores of any city. The model has its application for urban interventions in the chosen area with quantified syntactic parameters for their spatial configuration. This resulted in both cases improving and depriving the culture-precise-human-predilections about space proxemics affecting cultural integration values.

Abstract This paper compares spatial configuration, built form and uses at Tambauzinho and Tambaú areas, in João Pessoa, Brazil. Although it is located between the old city centre and its expansion towards the coast, Tambauzinho presents little urban vitality, different from the expected in a central location, and to what happens in Tambaú. Understanding cities as problems in organized complexity, and that space configures fields of potential movement and encounters, physical attributes work together to facilitate urban vitality. The potential movement to and through places at various scales (according to space syntax framework) were analysed for the city and the areas and compared with built form and uses. Both areas' urban grid present high potential movement; however at Tambauzinho, local physical attributes and a highway crossing the neighbourhood hinder more legibility and walkability, interrupting local flows and visual and physical connections at street level, with poor qualities of sidewalks. Limited urban vitality in Tambauzinho is underlined by non-residential uses mostly concentrating at the areas’ northern periphery, whereas at Tambaú, they spread more throughout the area. Problems at Tambauzinho express a mainly vehicular oriented urban planning; understanding negative consequences aims to build knowledge, alleviating problems and re-directing future interventions.

An aging population and epidemiological transition involves prolonged terminal illnesses and an increased demand for end-stage support in health services, mainly in hospitals. Changes in health care and government health policies may influence the death locations, making it possible to remain at home or in an institution. The scope of this article is to analyze death locations in the city of Londrina, State of Paraná, from 1996 to 2010, and to verify the influence of population and health policy changes on these statistics. An analysis was conducted into death locations in Londrina in Mortality Information System (SIM) considering the main causes and locations of death. There was an increase of 28% in deaths among the population in general, though 48% for the population over 60 years of age. There was an increase of deaths in hospitals, which were responsible for 70% of the occurrences, though death frequencies in others locations did not increase, and deaths in the home remained at about 18%. The locations of death did not change during this period, even with health policies that broadened care in other locations, such as the patient´s home. The predominance of hospital deaths was similar to other Brazilian cities, albeit higher than in other countries.

Along with environmental pollution, urban planning has been connected to public health. The research indicates that the quality of built environments plays an important role in reducing mental disorders and overall health. The structure and shape of the city are considered as one of the factors influencing happiness and health in urban communities and the type of the daily activities of citizens. The aim of this study was to promote physical activity in the main structure of the city via urban design in a way that the main form and morphology of the city can encourage citizens to move around and have physical activity within the city. Functional, physical, cultural-social, and perceptual-visual features are regarded as the most important and effective criteria in increasing physical activities in urban spaces, based on literature review. The environmental quality of urban spaces and their role in the physical activities of citizens in urban spaces were assessed by using the questionnaire tool and analytical network process (ANP) of structural equation modeling. Further, the space syntax method was utilized to evaluate the role of the spatial integration of urban spaces on improving physical activities. Based on the results, consideration of functional diversity, spatial flexibility and integration, security, and the aesthetic and visual quality of urban spaces plays an important role in improving the physical health of citizens in urban spaces. Further, more physical activities, including motivation for walking and the sense of public health and happiness, were observed in the streets having higher linkage and space syntax indexes with their surrounding texture.
