| Summary: | 碩士 === 中原大學 === 建築研究所 === 99 === There is more and more public open space in cities that has become an essential part of the public’s daily life. In the open space, different space elements, such as the configurations of the elements and facilities or layout places, affect the atmosphere and quality of the space. This, thus, affects the number of people as well as their willingness to use in the space. In the open space, waiting behavior occurs with the highest frequency and it is also the behavior that makes people to have the longest standstill. Whether people are willing to stay in somewhere not only depends on whether they are limited by objective factors, such as geographical conditions, but also relates to their mental states. The study discusses the various space elements in the square and discusses the choices of waiting places made by those who wait as well as how the decisions influence them. The study aims to provide suggestions as the guidelines for open space design to avoid vacant space from happening.
The conclusions are given below:
1) A shadowy place is where those who wait enjoy waiting most. A place where they can have a seat considered to be the second choice; then is where makes them feel coated.
2) Those who wait do not stay and wait by a landscape pool, but the pool can enhance the level of richness and pleasantness.
3) High/low step or it configurations makes no influence on its attraction.
4) The higher the natural sensation and positiveness in the space are, the higher level of pleasantness will be. They are also better adored by those who wait.
5) The space elements attracting those who wait mostly have the lower level of openness due to the higher level of coated feelings.
Based on the results, this study provides specific suggestions as the references for designers to design open space in the future.
