Abstract:
ResumenEl Centro Histórico de Cuenca, como todas las ciudades hispanoamericanas fundadas por los españoles, está configurado por una cuadrícula, un tejido urbano regular aparentemente repetitivo. Este artículo analiza 25 manzanas del Centro Histórico, identifica y ubica aquellos elementos que rompen la regularidad de esta cuadrícula, mediante un mapeo del área de estudio que diferencia el espacio privado del colectivo. Posteriormente, se busca en estos espacios, características espaciales comunes, que permitan categorizarlos. Finalmente, se describe la configuración espacial de cada categoría, tomando como base los elementos de delimitación del espacio -recinto, portal, aula- y sus posibles combinaciones. Se identifican así 27 ejemplos de espacios, agrupados en seis categorías; las cuales que pueden servir para analizar otros casos de estudio con distintos tejidos urbanos, escalas y diversidad espacial. Palabras clave: Cuadrícula urbana, espacio colectivo, forma urbana, tejido urbano, diversidad espacial. AbstractThe Historic Center of Cuenca, as every American city founded by the Spaniards, has been developed over an urban grid -an apparently repetitive regular urban fabric-. This article analyzed twenty-five blocks of the Historic Center, identified and located elements that break this grid regularity, through a mapping that distinguished the private form the collective spaces in the study area. Subsequently, it sought for common spatial characteristics in these spaces that allowed them to be categorized. Finally, the spatial configuration of each category was described, based on the space delimitation elements -recinto, portal, aula- and their possible combinations. As a result of this process, twenty-seven examples of spaces grouped into six categories were identified. These categories can be useful in order to analyze other case studies, with different urban tissues, scales and diversity. Keywords: Urban grid, collective space, urban form, urban fabric, spatial diversity

Abstract:
This study investigates the effect of art on promoting the meaning of the urban space. After considering the semantic dimension of the urban space and the mechanism of transferring the meanings of art through the views of experts, a model is presented for examining the art’s cooperation in promoting urban space meaning. In the first stage, the categories of space meanings influenced by art were extracted using the qualitative method of interpretative phenomenological analysis, and by examining 61 in-depth interviews in 6 urban spaces eligible for urban art in Tehran. In the second stage, these categories were surveyed in these spaces through 600 questionnaires after converting to the questionnaire items. Based on the results, “experience and perception capability”, “social participation”, and “relationship with context” were the main themes of the semantic relationships between art and urban space. Further, the lower scores related to the theme of “social participation” in the quantitative investigations indicate that this theme was weaker than the other themes in promoting the meaning of the urban space through the art in the selected urban spaces.

Abstract:
This article investigates what happens to urban space once an open-street CCTV system is implemented, framing the analysis in terms of the wider struggle that unfolds between different urban stakeholders for the definition of acceptability in public space. It is argued that, while the use of surveillance cameras was initially seen as functional to the enforcement of tighter control and to the de-complexification of urban space so as to make policing easier, a shift has now taken place in the articulation of this goal. As a result, it has slowly progressed to affect the wider field of sociability, with troubling consequences for the public character of public space. In light of this development, the article concludes by making the case for a normative stance to be taken in order to increase fairness and diversity in the city.

Abstract:
This paper explores pedestrian mobility patterns in Kypseli, a dense and socio-economically diverse neighborhood in Athens, Greece, that it is considered as a typical Greek residential area, in terms of its built environment and road network characteristics. The research method included crowdsourced geospatial data overlayed on cadastral maps, and semi-structured interviews with residents and visitors to understand the routes they usually take, the routes they could take, and the routes they would like to take. The study also applied space syntax analysis, using angular integration and choice tools, to assess how the urban layout impacts the pedestrian flow. Findings showed that the walking routes are primarily influenced by safety, accessibility, and pavement width, with well-connected streets and streets with intense mixed land-use. The study highlights the importance of urban design and land management in promoting the perceived walkability. It also recommends enhancing pedestrian spaces to create more sustainable, livable, and socially inclusive cities to support the implementation of the Sustainable Development Agenda 2030 SDG 11.

Our life evolves as an interaction between predictable and unpredictable patterns. Variations and impediments stimulate our free, non-mechanical impulses towards unpredictable patterns. At the macroscopic level. history can be seen through an ever-repeating cycle moving from a cumulative trend towards order. to a decaying process. Through a similar viewing lens the past trends that regulated the physical context have been moving from concentrated and dogmatic ideologies. to dispersed and spontaneous ones. Since the 18th century. the Machine Age is geared towards the perfection of the machine. Within this frame of development. it took no more than 200 years for the trend of "machine perfection" to be explicitly applied. at the microscopic level. upon the urban environment. At the urban scale of design. The internationally accepted manifestations of the Chart of Athens have been projecting dogmatic patterns of development: The ''ideal" definitions of uses and "orderliness", inside and outside the built shells. have brought about the problem of segregating the liveliness of the city. Such regulating orders have negated the particularities of the public spaces: the spaces where the mixture of both intended and unintended patterns of activities. and regulated and unregulated forms. acclaimed publicness through time. The physical structure of all urbanizations is the result of the antagonistic interaction between concentrated totalities on the one hand. and dispersive partialities on the other. The first process is the product of the aforementioned deterministic development while the second one is the more unpredictable. evolutionary development that follows. My goal ·is to bring both processes into equal consideration when taking on the role of shaping a micro- scale. public space. It seems that the recent acknowledgments qualities in the "street", the "square". the "19th-century fabric", are weak in challenging the negative aspects of the International style. They still do not escape from generating guiding and deterministic environments. Dissipative urban space aims at a rewardingly rich public experience by embodying. yet not determining. both regulated and "unregulated" physical patterns.

Abstract:
wilderness and urban texture Since the earliest beginnings of civilization, mankind has strived to form urban space by limiting its outlines and bringing a system of order to the wilderness of nature. Thus street and place mark the public space clearly bound by built mass, the enclosure of the more private space. In many modern cities of the United States the urban counterpart of street and place the continuous building mass is largely missing. Colin Rowe describes this phenomena as the unpleasant condition of urban texture of the modern city. If we want to fix that urban wilderness of the American City, we have to redraw its outlines and redefine its spaces.

Abstract:
Architects and urban designers have a unique background to deal with the experiential qualities of cities. Quality of urban spaces is an essential aspect of livability (Southworth, 2003). The quality of urban spaces is important, specifically the interaction between buildings and the street, and it has been explored by Jane Jacobs, Jan Gehl and many more. BIM and CIM is new technology to analyze and design buildings and cities. With fast technology development, there are many options today on how to deal with the experiential qualities and make a 3D model using image-based input.

Abstract:
Whilst there exists a body of work concerning the nature of wastelands and derelict spaces - what I term 'informal spaces' - within human geography, urban studies architecture and planning literature, there have been few attempts to link these theories with spatial planning practices. Accordingly, responding to this lack of sustained empirical research, this thesis explores the relationships between spatial planning practices and the production, (re)production and use of 'informal spaces,' ultimately aiming to further our knowledge of these complex relationships. It considers the potential of such spaces to act as a standpoint from which critical perspective towards much urban planning and design can be generated. Furthermore, investigating whether such commonly derided spaces can be conceptualised as a rich resource for urban life. The thesis does this by analysing how four chosen case studies within Manchester and Salford are appropriated, modified, performed, and conceptualised. Following the selection of the case studies, utilising qualitative data obtained by ethnographic methods including walking, observation and photography, unstructured interviews and further ethnographic interviews whilst walking, the study examines the ways in which such spaces are used by a variety of publics. Further qualitative data from semi-structured interviews, the analysis of secondary sources including current planning documents and historical data, are investigated and subsequently analysed to build an accurate genealogy of the sites, understanding in detail the planning contexts and future visions that have produce and sustain them as 'informal.' Key themes focus on the temporalities of the planning process as well as the ways in which stalled timescales intersect with other temporalities of nature and of cultural practice, encouraging appropriation. The ordering and disordering processes that designate and transform these spaces, are also discussed. Finally, the multiple affordances, encouraged by periods of temporal suspension and associated processes of disordering, that promote a diverse array of practices and potentialities are analysed. This research also contributes to debates surrounding the spatiality of dereliction.

Abstract:
O território contemporâneo é complexo e repleto de conflitos entre diferentes agentes produtores de espaço, principalmente em espaços de interface rural-urbana. Os conceitos de rural e urbano foram historicamente construídos a través de definições que priorizaram o urbano e desconsideraram o rural, promovendo uma visão urbano-centrada no planejamento territorial no Brasil. Oartigo objetiva analisar o papel de um assentamento rural como um espaço de interface rural-urbana dentro de uma região metropolitana brasileira, usando como estudo de caso o Assentamento Marapicú, localizado no periurbano da Região Metropolitana do Rio de Janeiro. São apresentadas algumas questões conceituais e descrito o processo de ocupação e de planejamento desse território.São múltiplas as facetas do rural, do urbano e suas interfaces, contudo ainda há uma visão homogeneizada de território no Brasil. A proposta é ampliar este debate, explicitando os conflitos de uso e ocupação do solo na produção do espaço. The contemporary territory is complex and full of conflicts between different agents producing space, mainly in areas of rural-urban interface. The rural and urban concepts were historically constructed through settings that prioritized the urban space and disregarded rural space, promoting an urban-centric view in territorial planning in Brazil. This study analyzes the role of a rural settlement as a rural-urban interface space within a Brazilian metropolitan region, using as a case study the settlement Marapicú, located in the peri-urbans paces of the metropolitan area of Rio de Janeiro. Some conceptual issues are presented and described the process of occupation and planning that territory. There are multiple facets of rural, urban and their interfaces, however there is still a homogenized view of territory in Brazil. The proposal is to extend this debate, explaining conflicts of use and occupation in the production of space.

Abstract:
Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 in early 2020, cities in China and even around the world have encountered great challenges, placing higher demands on urban governance and urban resilience, and the creation of healthy urban resilience public spaces is imminent. As an important stage of life for urban residents, urban public space is a complex manifestation of urban functions and an indispensable link in strengthening the city's resilience. In this paper, through the analysis of the connotation of urban resilience and related research at home and abroad, we further interpret the connotation and characteristics of urban public space resilience, and build a model of urban public space resilience based on the timeline of disasters. 1. Optimize the structure of public space and create a resilient spatial pattern; 2. Improve the infrastructure of public space and reserve emergency sites during disasters to use urban land flexibly; 3. Adjust the internal and external transportation system of public space to create healthy and green transportation; 4. Optimize the city Ventilated corridors to improve the resilience of the public space environment; 5. Make full use of the intelligent analysis of the GIS platform to improve the ecological disaster prevention capabilities of public spaces.

Abstract:
The urban experience of women in São Paulo reflects the complexities of urban space and gender dynamics in Brazil's largest city. Women face significant challenges, from precarious mobility to unequal access to public services and unsafe urban spaces. Socioeconomic disparities exacerbate these difficulties, highlighting the intersectionality of their identities. Fully understanding these experiences is essential for developing more inclusive and equitable public policies. This article emphasizes the need for comprehensive analysis that recognizes the diverse realities of women in the City of São Paulo and promotes a safer, fairer, and more equal urban environment for all. Keywords: Feminist urbanism, right to the city, feminine right to the city, urban inequality. Topic: Public space and urban design in the contemporary metropolis. A vivência urbana feminina em São Paulo reflete as complexidades do espaço urbano e das dinâmicas de gênero na maior cidade do Brasil. Mulheres enfrentam desafios significativos, desde mobilidade precária até acesso desigual a serviços públicos e espaços urbanos inseguros. Disparidades socioeconômicas acentuam essas dificuldades, destacando a interseccionalidade de suas identidades. Compreender plenamente essas experiências é essencial para desenvolver políticas públicas mais inclusivas e equitativas. Este artigo destaca a necessidade de uma análise abrangente que reconheça as diversas realidades das mulheres na Cidade de São Paulo e promova um ambiente urbano mais seguro, justo e igualitário para todas. Palavras chave: Urbanismo feminista, direito a cidade, direito a cidade feminina, desigualdade urbana. Bloco temático: Espaço público e projeto urbano na metrópole contemporânea.

Abstract:
This handbook is the culmination of the NORDGREEN project, which develops and implements smart planning and management solutions for well-designed, high-quality green spaces that promote health and well-being. Researchers and practitioners worked alongside one another in six Nordic cities: Aarhus (Denmark), Espoo and Ii (Finland), Stavanger (Norway), and Täby and Vilhelmina (Sweden). Together, the researchers and practitioners applied methods including GIS data analysis, statistical analysis, PPGIS surveys and analysis, policy document analysis, interviews, and evidence-based design models. The handbook uses an innovative framework based on the multi-disciplinary approach of the project, using epidemiological studies, environmental psychology, policy and management, and citizen participation. These fields of study and their respective methodologies are divided into the four so-called NORD components—NUMBERING, OBSERVING, REGULATING, and DESIGNING—which, accompanied by a BACKGROUND section reviewing the evidence linking green space and human health, form the bulk of the handbook. Some key take-away messages from these chapters include: There is a fairly broad consensus that access to, and use of, natural and green areas have a positive influence on people’s health and well-being. Both perceived and objective indicators for access to green space and for health are needed for making a more comprehensive evaluation for how people’s health is influenced by green space. Citizens’ experiential, local knowledge is a vital component of urban planning, and PPGIS can offer practitioners the opportunity to gather map-based experiential knowledge to provide insights for planning, designing, and managing green spaces. Alignment, both vertically across the political, tactical, and operational levels, as well as horizontally across departments, is critical for municipal organisations to foster health-promoting green spaces. Evidence-based design models can provide important categories and qualities for diagnosing the gaps in existing green spaces and designing green spaces with different scales and scopes that respond to the various health and well-being needs of different people. Based on the research and lessons learned from the six case study cities, the handbook provides practitioners with a TOOLBOX of adaptable methods, models, and guidelines for delivering health-promoting green spaces to consider in their own contexts. By reading this handbook, planners and policymakers can expect to gain (1) a background on the evidence linking green spaces and health, practical tools for planning, designing, and managing green spaces, (2) tips from researchers regarding the challenges of using various methods, models, and guidelines for delivering health-promoting green space, and (3) inspiration on some success stories emerging from the Nordic Region in this area of study. The handbook covers a wide range of health and urban green space topics. Landscape architects will find evidence-based design models for enhancing existing green space design processes. Planners will find methods and guidelines for identifying, collecting, and analysing both qualitative and quantitative green space and health data from statistical databases, national citizen surveys, and map-based participatory surveys. And all practitioners will find guidelines for achieving programmatic alignment in their work for delivering health-promoting green space.

Abstract:
Building on the success of a UK-based project, Queering Public Space (Catterall & Azzouz 2021), this report refocuses the lens on Australian cities. This is necessary because the histories, legacies and contemporary forms of cities differ across the world, requiring nuanced local insight to ‘usualise’ queerness in public spaces. The report comprises the results of a desk-top research project. First, a thematic literature review (Braun & Clarke 2021) on the experiences of LGBTIQ+ individuals, families and communities in Australian cities was conducted, identifying best practices in inclusive local area policy and design globally. Building upon the findings of the literature review, a set of assessment criteria was developed: – Stakeholder engagement; – Formation of a LGBTIQ+ advisory committee; – Affirming and usualising LGBTIQ+ communities; – Staff training and awareness; and – Inclusive public space design guidelines

Abstract:
After almost two years in operation, the challenges and key achievements of the TUC Urban Lab established in León, Mexico, provide valuable lessons for sustaining ongoing activities, accelerating broader transformations and guiding similar efforts elsewhere: 1. ESTABLISHING THE UL AS A NEUTRAL SPACE FOR DIALOGUE AND COLLABORATION: The UL León has become a space for constructive discussions, gradually involving multiple stakeholders and fostering collaboration, despite differing interests. However, further steps are necessary to identify and empower new leaderships for sustaining, institutionalizing and scaling UL processes and outcomes. Enhancing community ownership, not just over implementation but also over planning and maintenance of solutions, could maximize the impact of the UL. 2. FOSTERING URBAN CHANGE THROUGH PARTICIPATION AND NEW LEADERSHIPS: The diversity of interests and agendas represented in the UL León fostered experimentation at the intersection of environmental, climate and social challenges. While UL initiatives promoted community leadership, especially mobilizing female leaders, more strategic engagement is needed to foster meaningful citizen participation in urban change dynamics, including climate-related policy and investment decisions. 3. DEVELOPING CAPACITIES AND SYNERGIES FOR CLIMATE ACTION: Capacity development can enhance UL impact through skills that motivate community ownership and changes in lifestyles and behaviours. In particular, a transformative communication skill set can reinforce social changes as a means for facilitating the identification of synergies and cross-fertilization between the climate and social justice agendas.

Abstract:
As cities densify to meet environmental and economic goals, the equitable distribution of urban green spaces (UGS) becomes critical for fostering community well-being, promoting environmental justice, and enhancing climate resilience. This report presents a synthesis study conducted by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) in collaboration with Nilsson Landscape, aimed at understanding the relationship between socio-economy and accessibility to UGS, to assess and enhance green equity in urban environments. The research focuses on Malmö specifically, and have involved Region Skåne as a proxy for other municipalities in southern Sweden, leveraging data on green space access, canopy cover, socio-economic indicators, and maintenance costs. The primary objective of this study was to establish a data-driven, replicable framework that quantifies green space equity at the city district level. Specifically, the research seeks to (i) identify key indicators of green space availability and socio-economic status that can be measured consistently across Swedish municipalities; (ii) develop a composite relationship (a matrix or an index) that integrates these indicators to provide actionable insights for urban planners and policymakers, and (iii) to test the applicability of this index in Malmö, illustrating its potential to guide future investments in UGS for equitable urban development. The research integrates three complementary initiatives: i. KSLA Project: A synthesis of socio-economic and green space factors relevant to equity in urban environments. ii. FoMA Project: Development and testing of green space indicators, including canopy cover, urban green space per capita, and distance to the nearest green space, in relation to socio-economic metrics like income, education, and employment. iii. Movium Partnership: Evaluation of the Green Equity Matrix, a tool that categorizes neighborhoods based on their socio-economic status (SES) and green space status (GSS), and explores policy implications and maintenance costs. The ambition to develop a matrix or an index aligns with international models such as the Tree Equity Score and Spatial Equity NYC but adapts them to the Swedish context, where socioeconomic factors and access to UGS are measured differently. Data sources include GIS-based analyses, municipal records, and socio-economic data from Statistics Sweden. All computations of UGS rely on open datasets, which are updated at varying frequencies but not always regularly. All the SES data is easily accessible and reliable, and available at DeSO level. A Green Equity Matrix was developed, including seven indicators ‘UGS per capita’, ‘canopy cover’, ‘distance to UGS’ as Green Space Status (GSS) indicators, and ‘age dependency’, ‘income’, ‘education level’, and ‘employment rate’, as Socio-Economic Status (SES) indicators. Each indicator was computed and combined into two individual indexes. All indicators are combined unweighted, meaning they are treated equally when combined. Contrary to widespread assumptions, our analysis reveals that neighbourhoods with lower SES often have higher GSS in Malmö. Lower SES neighbourhoods in Malmö were often developed around the 1960’es and early 1970’es (the Million Program), where larger parks and green spaces were prioritized. As such, we believe these areas have benefited from earlier planning efforts aimed at providing green amenities to balance socio-economic disadvantages, and that the effects of these efforts are still notable in a Swedish context like in Malmö. However, while higher GSS in lower SES areas is a positive finding, it does not necessarily reflect equitable quality or functionality of Summary green spaces. Socio-economic disparities might still influence the usability, safety, and maintenance of these green areas, affecting their actual benefits to residents. We calculated maintenance cost in DeSOs characterized by both low GSS and low SES. Here, costs range from 24 to 335 SEK per capita, with an average in Malmö being 448 SEK per capita. Even though we indicate a relationship between low SES and low maintenance cost, we recognise the need for better data, including a calculation based on actual use, rather than cost per capita. However, such data is not available today. The actual quality of UGS should be further explored and considered incorporated into or related to the matrix. This will ensure that green space interventions align with the needs and preferences of residents. In line with this, local governments’ capacities to develop such indices should be explored too. However, the use of accessible data in combination with relatively simple GIS-based socio-ecological analysis has been prioritised for this project. Thus, our proposed method does not require advanced GIS skills, making it accessible for all municipalities. The suggested method ranks neighbourhoods within a municipality or urban area, meaning the GSS and SES results cannot be directly compared across different municipalities or urban areas. However, metrics such as the percentage of neighbourhoods within each quadrant or within a certain standard deviation can still be used for comparisons with other municipalities or urban areas. Our new and nuanced understanding of the relationship between SES and GSS challenges the conventional narrative that socio-economically disadvantaged neighbourhoods lack access to green spaces. Instead, it highlights the need for context-specific urban planning and management that recognizes both the strengths and challenges of different neighbourhoods.

Abstract:
In an essay, the authors of the University of Wuppertal want to devote themselves to the theory and practical methodology of "exploring and researching social space" in the context of socially just urban planning and, in doing so, first present positions of historical and contemporary urban planning and architectural criticism (such as from the Charter of Athens (cf. source year), urban planning concepts by Robert Moses as well as by Jane Jacobs and Jan Gehl) and set them against each other against the background of the consideration of researching social space. Furthermore, the essay can present practical examples from the methodology of social space research as applied in the exam project of Leila Rudzki in the course of study "Public Interest Design" and reflect on them against the background of the previously named parameters of socially just urban development. In addition to the above-mentioned thesis, the text contribution is based on a 60-minute lecture by the authors on the same topic, which was presented at the Convention „Narrative of the social" on 29.05. to 02.06.23 at the IUC under the direction of Prof. Dr. Heinz Sünker (University Wuppertal, Germany) and Prof. Dr. Goran Gretić (University of Zagreb, Croatia). The lecture expanded the plenary of the Convention, which was largely dedicated to the thematic stand of the "social" from the perspective of epistemological and critical theory, to include a design and planning-conceptual perspective, disciplines that represent the essential reference sciences of the study programme "Public Interest Design".

Abstract:
This article will analyze the transformation process of public space on the example of the former Soviet city of Minsk. The goal is to analyze the relationship between the change in public space, the behavior of people in it and the development of a culture of consumption. The key principles of constructing the Soviet public space will also be outlined (they will be considered based on in-depth interviews of people living at that time). Ideological, social and economic shifts in the context of the post-Soviet city will be noted using the example of the city of Minsk. An analysis of the development of culture of consumption in the modern urban environment will be carried out as the main direction in the transformation of public space. The modern functions of the urban public space (communicative, organizational and recreational) will be defined and analyzed in the following article. This research is intended to find out the prospects for the development of the urban public space of the city of Minsk. The fundamental basis of this article is information from in-depth interviews both with residents of the Soviet period of the city of Minsk and with residents of present-day city of Minsk. The nature of this research can be classified as explanatory, since the aim is to find out the existence of a relationship between the two aspects (or its correlation), but besides, it is exploratory, since it aims to study an area where little is known.

Abstract:
This report presents the parks and green walls we visited on our study visit in Paris (15th-19th of August 2022). We aimed to study green spaces, which represent a good or exceptional practice of ecological design. Ecological design, in an urban landscape context, can be described as the integration of aesthetic and ecological aspects in urban green space design. Supporting ecological processes, biodiversity and providing high aesthetical and recreational values are objectives of ecological design. The visited green spaces varied in their degree and focus on how aesthetical and ecological aspects were integrated. All objects were exceptional regarding one or several aspects such as the choice of plant material, structural and vegetation complexity or the degree in which ecological processes and biodiversity were given space. For us it was very interesting to see and discuss these varying approaches and how we perceived to which degree aesthetical and ecological goals were reached.
