| description | Cities of today are shaped more by boundary rather than by rational design. Boundaries, on the other
hand, are the result of the amalgamation of a community’s collective living experiences. Architecture
defines boundary as a formal division of lines, walls and partitions. In public spaces, boundaries can be
blurred arising from needs and usages. Conventional boundaries, because they do not take into account
public and cultural needs, has resulted in unyielding spatial characteristics which stifle creativity in the
utilization of space. In this paper, public space, in particular the streetscape will be examined in order to
redefine the space usage. This paper also offers solutions in the use of street space in order to create a
better quality of life |
