Public space refers to areas that are open and accessible to the general public, such as parks, plazas, streets, and public buildings. Research in this area often focuses on understanding how people use and interact with these spaces, and how design, amenities, and programming can enhance the quality of public spaces and promote social interaction, community engagement, and well-being. Studies may also explore issues related to accessibility, safety, and inclusivity in public spaces, as well as the impact of public space design on urban development, culture, and public health.
