城市是由一系列多元化空间和社会条件所构成的复杂有机体。各异的城市形态衍生出不同的城市空间, 为人类提供了丰富多彩的活动场所。

诺利(1748年)所设计的著名罗马市规划图, 刻画了这座城市的城市结构, 运用图形化场地标识法, 展现了建筑物与公共空间之间的共生关系。 广场、街道和公园构成公共生活发展的关键元素, 但二十世纪九十年代及更早时期的城镇变革运动, 衍生出以消费文化为核心的新型公共空间。

现如今, 购物中心、酒店大堂和屋顶露台逐渐成为当代社会的集体空间。这一说法旨在公开反映城市内部的公共空间状况,对于亚洲国家尤其如此, 因为当地城市结构的快速变化正在逐步转变公共空间的城市和社会维度。 以试点工程的形式论述三大城市设计项目, 探讨如何将普通城市空间转变为更有意义的活动场所,以促进社会交往和市民参与。


Cities are complex organisms constituted by a diverse range of spatial and social conditions. Their specific urban forms generate different urban spaces that provide the scenarios fora great variety of human activities.

The famous plan of Rome by Nolli (1748) illustrates the urban structure of the city using a figure ground representation which shows the symbiotic relationship of buildings and public spaces. Squares, streets and parks constitute crucial elements for the development of the public life, however urban transformation initiatives in the 1990s and even earlier, generated new types of public spaces focused on the consumption culture.

Nowadays shopping centers, hotel lobbies, and rooftop terraces are becoming the collective spaces of the contemporary society. This talk aims to open a reflection on the condition of the public space in the city, especially in the Asian context, where the rapid change of the urban structure is transforming the urban and social dimension of public spaces.Three urban design projects will be described as experimental processes to transform generic urban spaces in meaningful places in order to facilitate social interaction and civic engagement.
