Foster Vitality and Social Interaction
The vitality of urban spaces is driven by the continuous presence of people and the various activities that take place in them. Lack of connectivity or underutilized spaces can greatly diminish the life, vibrancy and consequently the diversity of an area.
- Design spaces that promote socialization by ensuring a mix of uses and activities in urban environments.
- Avoid isolating areas designated for single purposes or those that are sparsely populated, such as low-density residential zones or commercial districts.
- Ensure buildings connect to streets and public spaces to encourage interaction and avoid creating dead zones.
- Create spaces that facilitate community engagement and mutual support among residents.
