Criteri e progetto per lo spazio pubblico aperto urbano The public space is a very important feature of the city. Public space is responsible for the behaviour in the cities and to showcase its strength to the world. It will aid in the composition of a city and country identity to portray them to the public. A healthy environment leads to a healthy existence. It is a vital aspect in the building up of a city that can be traced back to ancient times. These types of spaces help connect the various neighbourhoods residing together and promote social connection and even a common, local personality.
