公共空間中可坐的空間總量
最常被人們使用的廣場空間,可以讓人坐下來的地方約佔總面積6-10%,深入調查發現甚至可以多到超過50%。這些數字不是要為了表達準確計算的必要,而是在公共空間設計裡將「讓人坐下來」當成一回事認真對待。事實上,只要建築師與都市設計師開始思考,公共空間設計如何創造友善使用者坐下的空間,最後設計成果很容易超過前述的6-10%。
編按:關於公共空間夠不夠坐,最近搭著寶可夢遊戲熱潮,真是一個很好的檢驗機會哪!
Sitting Space Amount
In the best used plazas the sitting space varies between 6 to 10% of the total space. Further investigation showed that it was possible to create 50% more sitting places. The exact ratio is not as important, however, as the necessity as considering the matter. Once an architect has to start to think of ways to make a place sittable, it is virtually impossible not to surpass any minimum.
