Exploring the Potential of Vertical Public Spaces in Architecture
Session
Architecture and Spatial Planning
Description
The rapid urbanization and limited horizontal space in contemporary cities have led architects and urban planners to seek innovative solutions to accommodate the growing need for public spaces. This abstract delves into the intriguing concept of vertical public spaces and their potential to revolutionize urban landscapes.
Our research investigates how the concept of verticality can be effectively utilized to spread public spaces in the vertical direction.
Vertical public spaces offer a promising solution to the scarcity of open areas in densely populated urban environments. By envisioning parks, plazas, and recreational areas vertically, architects can make efficient use of limited land resources while fostering a sense of community engagement and interaction. This alternative approach to spatial planning has the potential to enhance the livability, functionality, and sustainability of cities.
Through a multidisciplinary exploration, our study examines various aspects related to vertical public spaces. We analyze architectural designs, structural considerations, technological advancements, and social dynamics that play a pivotal role in creating vibrant vertical public spaces. Furthermore, we delve into the experiences and perceptions of users, considering their spatial requirements and preferences, to ensure that vertical public spaces effectively meet the needs of diverse communities.
