Indoor Spaces

The existence of an open space, is truly important to nowadays urban society. Because basically, community of a city has been bounded to open spaces around that city. The need of a thirdplace in a city, now, is way more than just a regular, it became a lifestyle. This thirdplace phenomena give impacts to the usage of outdoor spaces in the city which used to be indoor spaces, now became outdoor ones (public areas). What used to be a mall and a café that are favorites, now turning into outdoor spaces such as parks, streets (pedestrians), public spaces for children, recreation areas, and so on. Jakarta, especially in Palmerah, open spaces are very rarely  found. In the other side, Palmerah used to be known for its batik, but now it’s already all  gone. Batik as the main program that supports this thirdplace is expected to be able to accommodate the work or activities of local residents. Hold on to Ray Oldenburg’s theory about the third place criteria, batik in this design is intended as a medium for local residents to meet, greet, and interact. With this, batik media is able to accommodate the need of a thirdplace itself. However  still, open spaces in this design has the largest percentage as public spaces for local residents to do some activities and interactions. Batik phases are realized in creating existing spaces; starting from seeing, then feeling, and finally doing. Batik produced by locals can be resold and later become their income. Plots of spaces, materials, wall tears, and batik carvings are also highlighted in this building to create characteristic of this Ambatik building. With Ambatik, all ages, all genders, all types of ethnicity, culture, and race, can be united without any difference.AbstrakKeberadaan ruang luar sangatlah penting bagi masyarakat kota saat ini. Pada dasarnya, masyarakat memiliki keterikatan pada ruang-ruang terbuka kota. Sekarang, Kebutuhan tempat ketiga di dalam suatu kota sudah lebih dari sekedar kebutuhan biasa, tetapi sudah menjadi gaya hidup. Fenomena tempat ketiga berdampak pada penggunaan ruang luar yang pada awalnya dari penggunaan ruang dalam, mulai beralih ke ruang luar (ruang publik). Yang semula mall dan kafe menjadi ruang favorit, sekarang beralih ke ruang luar publik seperti taman, jalan (pedestrian), RPTRA, tempat rekreasi dan sebagainya. Di Jakarta, tepatnya di Palmerah, ruang-ruang terbuka bagi warga sekitar sangatlah jarang ditemui. Di satu sisi, Palmerah yang dalam sejarah dikenal oleh batiknya, sekarang sudah menghilang. Ambatik hadir untuk menunjang tempat ketiga di kawasan Palmerah, yang diharapkan mampu mewadahi kegiatan ataupun aktivitas dari warga sekitar, sekaligus menghidupkan kembali identitas batik di Palmerah. Dengan teori Ray Oldenburg mengenai kriteria sebuah tempat ketiga, batik dalam rancangan ini dimaksudkan sebagai media bagi warga sekitar untuk bertemu, bersapa dan berinteraksi. Ruang-ruang terbuka dalam rancangan ini juga berguna sebagai ruang publik bagi warga sekitar untuk beraktivitas, berinteraksi untuk melakukan kegiatan seni dan budaya. Fase-fase batik juga diwujudkan dalam menciptakan ruang-ruang yang ada, mulai dari melihat, kemudian merasakan, dan melakukan. Dengan hadirnya Ambatik, diharap mampu meningkatkan relasi antar warga, pemahaman baru tentang batik, dan kesadaran akan tradisi.

Banjarmasin is dominated with the combination of land and river, which resulted many riverside areas in the city. These areas are functioned as settlements area, as well as commercial and public areas as the focus of the city’s development and the local’s daily activities. However, the rapid development in Banjarmasin still giving less attention to the development of green open spaces, despite the local connection with the river. Therefore, this research aimed to identify the local perception of green open space in the riverside areas of Banjarmasin through descriptive qualitative analysis. Questionnaires and observations in five study areas were done to obtain the local perception. The results show that the highest local perception index is for the  social aspects for 87,2 points and the lowest local perception index is the spatial planning aspects for 42,6 points. Banjarmasin needs to focus more on the spatial planning of green open spaces in riverside areas and enhancing the opportunity for locals to participate in any spatial planning process (participatory planning).

Production Configuration

The main objective of this study is to explore the influence and reflexes of urban and environmental legislation on the production, configuration, and distribution of urban open spaces. The work is based on the premise that, over the last years, legislation has played an important role in the composition of the urban spatial mosaic, especially regarding the need and obligation of all new lots to reserve, in the lottable land, a minimum percentage of open spaces, understood in this research as the road network, public recreation areas, permanent environmental protection areas, municipal easements and property easements. The object of this observation are the urban lots approved by the city of Uberlândia since 2000, a period in which several factors forced the city to adjust to the new urban development instruments and to the master plan, mainly the city’s rapid growth, also a result of the growth of the Brazilian real estate market. We applied the morphometric methodology, using the QGIS software to quantify open space and analyze measurements and rates of the morphological elements based on the legal parameters. The result was the identification of the way open spaces were designed in the analyzed projects, their spatial relations, morphological typology and distribution patterns, uncovering recurring patterns that characterize the landscape of many medium-sized Brazilian cities.

The global cities of the world are witnessing a visible disconnection of everyday life. In India the Smart City guidelines acknowledge the need to counter the growing social detachment and intolerance by encouraging interactions. They go further in identifying that preserving and creating of open spaces must be a key feature of comprehensive urban development. Most social relations are cemented within open spaces at the neighbourhood level. Previous studies examine the association between the attributes of neighbourhood open spaces and social activity but neglect to view the issue comprehensively. The present study turns to Lefebvre’s Unitary Theory which states that open space is a result of three forces; 1) perceived space which is the physical dimension and material quality identifiable by the senses; 2) conceived space created by planners and other agents as plans and documents; and 3) lived space which is shaped by the values attached and images generated through user experience. For open space conducive to social interactions these three aspects must work in tandem. With this consideration a framework of criteria and indicators is developed and used to measure and compare the open spaces in select neighbourhoods in Europe and India. The investigation thus reveals differences in all three aspects of neighbourhood spaces. It also reveals a discrepancy between the planning standards formulated and employed by the city authorities in providing the spaces and the actual needs of the community. The research aims to address this gap. The study of the Indian cases lays foundation for the use of the framework to measure open spaces in association with social cohesion and thereby contribute to the enhancement of the social infrastructure of the City.

The use of outdoor (open) spaces in public buildings is vast and has significant roles ranging from individual (users) perception of the development of urban centers and cities to the satisfaction of the various functions they perform. However, little research is available on the use of the outdoor spaces in these Public buildings environment and the activities that take place thereof. This study investigates the factors that take users of public buildings to the outdoor environment and the physical factors that constitute their uses within the spaces. Using both qualitative and quantitative research approach, the paper examined the importance of restructuring the outdoor spaces for quality of the surrounding of the built environment. The study adopts a purposive sampling where participants were selected based on the outdoor use only. A total of seventy (75) questionnaires were administered to the various users of public buildings within specific open spaces. Only seventy (70) representing (93.33%) of the total population were returned and subjected to data analysis using the relevant descriptive and inferential statistical techniques, Mean Weighted Score (MWS) and Relatively Important Index (R.I.I) were used to rank features obtained. The study concludes that proper restructuring of landscape elements is necessary within public buildings, in order to provide human comfort, well-being and improved productivity. It was recommended that revitalizing the environmental features of these public building necessitates the insufficiency of outdoor features in government own buildings. Therefore, the user’s satisfaction of this outdoor (open) space in public buildings should be key consideration and emphasized on right from planning and design stages to it implementation.

This is the first study to comprehensively evaluate the benefit of urban open spaces and cropland with different adjacent public facilities seen as locally undesirable (“not in my backyard,” NIMBY) or desirable (“yes in my backyard,” YIMBY). The total benefit increases or decreases for urban open space and cropland with adjacent NIMBY or YIMBY facilities in a municipality in Taiwan. The results show that for the city as a whole, the current arrangement of NIMBY and YIMBY in different zones decreases the total benefit of urban open spaces in highly urbanized zones and increases the total damage to cropland in extremely rural zones. This indicates a need to avoid further installing NIMBY or YIMBY facilities in already occupied urban open spaces. The results also demonstrate that locating NIMBY or YIMBY facilities near cropland fails to highlight the benefit of YIMBY facilities and magnifies opposition to NIMBY facilities. For individual housing units, the total damage is 1.87% of the average housing price for cropland-type open space with adjacent NIMBY or YIMBY facilities, and the total benefit is 7.43% of the average housing price for urban-type open space in a highly urbanized area. In contrast, the total benefit for open space with adjacent NIMBY or YIMBY facilities is a 2.95%-13.80% increase in the average housing price for areas with mixed urban open space and cropland.

A scientific reading of the transformations of Matera starting from the urban re-activation in a social and spatial perspective in its neighbourhoods. The redevelopment of urban voids starts by the metaphor of the ecological network in an urban scale to update the connection system of open spaces in the light of new practices and flows for an innovative idea of urban resilience. The key role is re-see the neighbourhood: (i) on a local scale, focusing on the practices and customs, in the centre like in the industrial areas, starting processes of recovery and reuse but also of innovation (that result from the opportunity to be the European Capital of Culture 2019); (ii) on a urban scale with the transition space and threshold, identifying those natural and mineral signs representing a transition of porosity. The value of the "suburbs" enters as re-starting for rebirth of the city projects counting on the creativity of practices into the open spaces. The reformist project of Matera as original "laboratory" of architectural and urban experiments changes. Neighbourhoods were born from the same idea of “vicinato” (neighbour) but adapted to a new social identity, able to work on embryos of community, in the same way in Valencia in which natural elements (Turia) lead to rediscover the sense of belonging and making community. In both cases, urban policies are oriented towards innovative and spontaneous processes able to change the urban approach to a multi-purpose city although representative of culture and identity.

Jakarta was developed started from the coastline and gradually moved to the centre of the city which left the coastal area remain untouch. The development of Jakarta which only oriented on capitalism cause in a lack of public space for the community, which make public coping with the issues independently. The roads in the housing area and villages was used by local residents as a space to socialize with neighbors or a place to do activities. There are still lots of kampung remained in Muara Baru which located in North Jakarta, but not facilitated by public space and open space to accommodate the citizen’s need to socialize and do their activity, so they carried out those activities in the middle of the road or alley which can disturb the traffic and endangered other people’s lives.  This phenomenon indicates that the community's need for public space is very high and needs to be anticipated immediately in order to avoid environmental and social degradation. The purpose of this project is to become a linkage that connect people with the surrounding environment, as well as humans with other humans, while this project also help the economy and home industry businesses, which bring in money to help the economy of local citizens, and cause positive interactions, such as knowledge exchange and development in economic aspects. AbstrakPembangunan kota Jakarta awalnya dimulai dari area pinggir laut yang kemudian semakin berkembang ke pusat kota, seiring berlangsungnya pembangunan di pusat kota, daerah pinggir/pesisir mulai ditinggalkan dan tidak tersentuh. Pengembangan kota Jakarta yang hanya berorientasi pada kepentingan kapitalis juga mengakibatkan kurangnya ruang publik bagi masyarakat, sehingga  mengakibatkan masyarakat mengatasinya secara mandiri. Jalan-jalan di dalam perumahan hingga perkampungan yang difungsikan oleh warga setempat sebagai ruang untuk bersosialisasi dengan tetangga atau tempat melakukan aktivitas. Kawasan Muara Baru yang terletak di wilayah pesisir Jakarta bagian Utara, masih terdapat banyak area perkampungan, tetapi tidak difasilitasi oleh ruang publik atau ruang terbuka sehingga untuk melakukan kegiatan berinteraksi dan beraktivitas, dilakukan di jalan/lorong kecil didepan rumah, yang dapat mengganggu lalu lintas dan juga membahayakan keselamatan warga dan juga pengguna jalan. Fenomena ini menandakan bahwa kebutuhan masyarakat akan ruang publik sangat tinggi dan perlu segera diantisipasi agar tidak terjadi degradasi lingkungan dan sosial, sehingga tujuan dari proyek ini adalah sebagai linkage yang menggabungkan manusia dengan lingkungan di sekitarnya, serta manusia dengan manusia lainnya, selain itu juga untuk membantu perekonomian dan usaha industri rumahan, yang dapat dilakukan serta menghasilkan uang untuk membantu perekonomian warga, serta menimbulkan interaksi positif, seperti pertukaran ilmu dan pembangunan aspek ekonomi, yang ke depannya akan menghasilkan kemajuan pada kota Jakarta dengan aspek sosial dan ekonomi yang seimbang.

Public Health And Safety

This chapter looks at interventions for land and open spaces and their impact on public health and safety. Abandoned, vacant, and neglected land is of great and growing concern in many cities. The chapter considers recent efforts to address this sort of land-based blight and how planners can partner with scientists to implement and evaluate land-remediation and zoning strategies to best improve public health and safety. In many ways, these changes represent the innate human desire for nature and green spaces. Without action from planners and landscape architects, such natural spaces would not exist in many of the cities. The chapter then showcases several studies that provide evidence that the mere presence of green spaces have healing and calming effects, an effect that occurs even if residents do not actively use these spaces. Indeed, there have been myriad efforts over the past decade or so by cities to revisit and reinvigorate their green and open-space planning efforts. Much of this effort has been to insert managed green spaces into smaller parcels and equitably distribute them across neighborhoods that lack access to larger green spaces. This pocket-park movement has economic drivers but, in some cities, also seeks to leverage the likely health benefits to local residents.

Resumo: O presente artigo apresenta uma série de discussões a cerca da importância da presença de espaços abertos junto a instituições para idosos, tomando por base os resultados de uma pesquisa de mestrado centrada neste tema e desenvolvida a partir do estudo da realidade vigente no município de Porto Alegre-RS. A referida pesquisa foi desenvolvida, basicamente a partir de dois estudos de campo: o primeiro, um levantamento preliminar onde foram analisadas características físicas dos espaços abertos de uma amostra de 12 instituições; e, o segundo, um estudo de casos comparativo envolvendo duas instituições com diferentes condições de disponibilidade e qualidade de espaços abertos. Os resultados do primeiro estudo demonstraram um panorama predominantemente negativo quanto à presença e qualidade dos espaços abertos disponíveis nas instituições, com espaços demasiadamente restritos, pouco funcionais e esteticamente pouco interessantes. O segundo estudo, por outro lado, demonstrou, entre outros resultados não abordados neste artigo, uma influência da qualidade do pátio sobre a satisfação dos idosos em relação à instituição e sobre o tempo de permanência dos idosos nas áreas externas. Este estudo revelou ainda que, de forma geral, os idosos utilizam muito pouco outros espaços abertos fora da instituição como parques e praças, o que reforça a importância da presença de locais desta natureza junto à instituição. Palavras-chave: Instituições para Idosos. Espaços Abertos. Qualidade de Vida. Abstract: This article presents several aspects related to the importance of outdoor spaces in institutions for the elderly. It is based on the results of a master’s degree research project on this topic, which was developed according to the analysis of the actual situation of institutions in the city of Porto Alegre-RS. Two field studies were the basic sources of data for this research: the first one analyzed the physical characteristics of outdoor spaces in a sample of 12 institutions; the second one was a comparative study including two institutions with different conditions regarding the availability and quality of outdoor spaces. The results of the first study showed an overall negative situation of availability and quality of outdoor spaces in the institutions. The spaces presented restricted availability and functionality and little aesthetic interest. The second study, on the other hand, showed the influence of the quality of outdoor spaces on the satisfaction of the elderly regarding the institution and their length of stay in the outdoor. This study also revealed that elderly people usually do not use the other open areas outside the institution, such as parks and squares, very frequently. This aspect highlights the importance of outdoor spaces in institutions for the elderly. Keywords: Institutions for the Elderly. Open Spaces. Quality of Living.
