| dc.description.abstract | The main objectives of this research were to analyze open space in various areas
of the developed urban area, to search and identify waste spaces in different types, and to
design them as green areas showing the characteristics of space and softscape elements
that reflected quality of use in both recreation and aesthetics. Two stage data collection
process, survey of physical characteristics of the area and area activity observation, were
used to analyze the agreement and appropriateness of landscape elements and the
physical environment to encourage green area.
The study found the four types of waste space in Charoenkrung Bangrak district
that could be used as a target space to increase the green space according to the studied
criteria as followings; 1) on right of way open space 2) front building open space 3) around
building open space and 4) on owner open space. The results showed that these open
spaces had the following characteristics of waste space; 1) unutilized space 2)
underutilized space 3) leftover space. To recover these waste spaces therefore, was to
design the landscape elements in the following studied issues; 1) layout (function and
linking area), 2) area elements (supporting surface of use, facilities, and plantation), and 3)
aesthetics (the atmosphere of the area, such as shadiness, order, simplicity, etc.)
Suggestions of the study could be concluded that if the green area was considered
along with the development or improvement of the area where land in urban
communities was used for construction to support activity, then a green space would fit
that area. Thus, urban designers, city planners, and those involved in urban development
should include green area into consideration in the process of design, site plan, project
setting, and various plans that relevant. | en_US |
