The Landscape Design Ideas | Formation of Public Spaces



This is one of the great experience that broaden my Landscape Design Ideas for Public Spaces. Working in a company that allowed me to gain that experience for 9 years has been a fruitful journey to add into my working experience in adopting the landscape design program in an international setting.


 

The Learning design | designing spaces for the people



Landscape architecture is all about designing spaces for the people, The aesthetic beauty of the place is usually seen as the main element but it is more deeper than that. Before the actual finishes are determined, the Landscape architect is challenge with more deeper issues than that. It is actually solving a problem that would help ease the movement of people, their safety and the functionality of the space in a larger context.

The street planters for example complements the design of this public space. It serves as a station point for the placement of Trees but serves as a resting place where people walking by can sit and relax. The interaction of public places with the utilities provided helps the spaces more functional. This is what is established, the relationship of people to public spaces.

The Form of Urban Public Space

The main objective of the landscape designer in the formation of Public places urban spaces should be responsive. The much more deeper issues in broader sense. Urban Public space is a complex system where all components have their own specific roles. These components are:


The Streets
The Open Spaces
Parks
Spaces between houses or buildings

1. The Streets


The streets art the lines connecting to places. It appears to be the "artery" that connects all other components. The accessibility of public and private transportation and the people walking around to and from other places. 

2. The Open Spaces 

The Open Spaces are the "stop overs" breaking the movement of people. It serves as a resting point. A breathing spaces for people and spaces as well. 

Parks. 

Parks are different from open spaces though it may seem to serve the same function. Parks are the recreational activities to people within the community. 




Spaces between houses or buikdings

Spaces between house or building are the transition point from the busy street to the adjacent residential or buildings.

All of these components encouraged landscaped design ideas to build the relationship of the spaces to people. Their functionalities affects the peoples activities and requires interactions between them. That will support the affectivity and success of the landscape design.
