PUBLIC SPACE is the place where the drama of urban life spread out.

Leon Krier’s opinion in his book entitled Architecture and Urban Design; 1979-1992, judging that the public space can only be formed from the street and square.

Stephen Carr guides the design of public space in his book entitled Public Space that public spaces should be; responsive, democratic and meaningful.

Responsive means public space should be used for various activities and broad interests. Democratic means of public space should be used by the general public from various social backgrounds, economic and cultural as well as accessible for the disabled body, the elderly and the human physical condition. Meaningful means of public space must have a link with the human, public space and the world at large. Public space should also have links with the social context.
