总结: | Nowadays, the urban chaos brings some problems to the citizens such as mental fatigue,
irritability and lack of attention, emphasizing the need for open urban spaces, capable to
contribute to the restoration of physical and mental balance of people. By the variety of
alternative uses available, many of them related to the stimulus of entertainment
activities, the squares have been identified as restorative environments, especially by its
potential as a place of leisure. In this context, the objective of this dissertation is to
understand the use of the square as leisure environment, by a square in Natal RN,
establishing the relationship between environmental and behavioral characteristics.
More specifically, I attempt to identify the major activities that happen there, the people
that develop them and the spatial and temporal configurations of this occupation.
Among the 290 squares available in the city, the Kalina Maia Square was selected,
which is located in the district of Lagoa Nova. The case study chosen was based on
criteria relating to scale, shape, location on the urban environment, variability of uses
and conservation status. In the study were used behavioral mapping place-centered and
people-centered, behavior trace analysis and 14 interviews. The results show that the
square is used by people from different ages and social classes, subdivided into groups
with specific days and times. These users are usually engaged in activities related to
various types of leisure, with sports predominance. The relationship between spatial
configuration and behavior shows that there is a sectorization of uses, being possible to
identify the environmental characteristics that most favor observed activities, especially
in relation to shading and presence of furniture and equipment. Moreover, throughout
the day it appears that the affordances inherent to the various fixed objects on the square
are decoded differently by various categories of users, by giving them insights that help
the development of leisure activities that characterize each group |
