TOPIC 1. RESPONSIVE ENVIRONMENT

The reporters discussed creating a responsive environment on this topic.
using routes and strategic planning, or as they put it, "permeability." As is well known,
individuals reach, recognize, and interact with environments and buildings primarily
through routes or streets. And with this much significance, it is simply necessary to
consider and make use of an area's permeability to manage traffic and guarantee a strong
connection between individuals and the spaces within an area.

Additionally, the paper focuses mainly on the use of perimeter blocks

even though it was noted that it wasn't always appropriate. Perimeter blocks are defined
as structures or spaces that are designed in the shape of small blocks, with the public
areas of these structures facing the streets or parks so that their users can enjoy a lively
atmosphere and the more private areas being located at the back so that they can feel
secure and private. invent on the most accessible areas of a place, this form of blocking
would prevent confusion between a public and private zone.

Simply put, permeability is an important factor that should be carefully

taken into account when developing spaces because it allows people to move freely
between public and private areas, helps to distinguish between them, and fosters a
secure, peaceful, and responsive environment.

TOPIC 2. SPACE IN URBAN DESIGN

Urban Spaces are outdoor areas that enable communication, movement,

and interaction between individuals within a city, as explained in this article. Topics
including the Function, Types, and Importance of Spaces in Urban Design are covered in
this paper. These areas not only improve traffic flow, but they also (1) address how people
perceive and act in various environments, which enables designers and planners to (2)
accommodate various people with various aspirations, goals, and wants. Because urban
design is not simply about haphazardly plotting and constructing structures that can only
be aesthetically beautiful, but also about establishing a livable and harmonious city that
can provide for and solve the needs of its inhabitants.

The Value of Urban Areas. And as we've undoubtedly already discussed,

these places offer residents a chance to socialize, engage in recreation, have access to
secure transportation, and experience the unique character of their own neighborhood,
all of which can help them feel a sense of belonging outside of their homes.
