Summary: | 碩士 === 中國文化大學 === 建築及都市設計學系 === 107 === With the growing public concern about the cultural and creative industries, in recent years all kinds of so-called “cultural and creative parks” have being emerging and becoming urban open space with continued popularity. In order to examine this new type of urban open space, this study takes Songshan Cultural and Creative Park as an example, exploring how its different spatial configuration under different uses and its influence on visitors’ behaviors. In specific, this study employs the tool of agent-based analysis in Space Syntax and draws comparison with the results of on-site observation. Suggestions for the use of this particular type of urban open space are proposed as follows: 1. Activities that can effectively draw visitors in (i.e., performances, interaction-based exhibition) should avoid the primary visitor flow so as to provide the visitors with choice and flexibility. In the contrary, activities of less physical interaction should be placed where visitors are most likely to pass by and see. 2. Elements that may creative visual obstruction should be organized in accordance to the change of visitors’ visual paths, while elements that may block the flow of visitors should be used as a tool for guiding the crowd. The purpose is to create a more visitor-friendly environment, despite the different natures of different activities. 3. Architectural elements with strong visual axis (i.e., stage, display stall, etc.) should be placed with a careful consideration about the directions of visitor flow. The relationship between the visitors and that particular element is equally important as well.
