Abstract

Modern and contemporary industrial heritage has been used as a policy tool for revitalizing urban spaces by contributing to enhancing the economic added value of the region and improving the image of the city through the regeneration of idle facilities and idle spaces. However, except for advanced cases, many playback spaces have not continued and have been re-idled, turning into urban spaces that local people do not want to reveal. Through previous studies and literature reviews, this researcher derived clues to problem-solving from environmental stimuli that can draw positive responses based on human spatial experiences, and analyzed the case of the Steel Stacks Arts and Culture Campus. The lives and cultures of thousands of local people have been cut off since the Bethlehem Steel Plant, which was established in 1857 and led to the vitality of the 20th century, but the regional development initiatives and residents' environmental, social, and cultural projects since 2000 have been active as a place to welcome more than 1.5 million visitors every year. From the perspective of positive spatial experience, the success factor of the Steel Stacks Arts and Culture Campus is that first, the formal elements of the physical object are newly combined with nostalgia in the past to discover modern creativity and reflect visual factors to view the fused landscape of artificial and natural objects. Second, through changes in functional factors, the value of use conversion was increased by reflecting experiential factors by providing a practical space through basic convenience and environmental safety along with new and abundant experiences. This study aims to note that in order to spread urban space revitalization through the regeneration of idle facilities and idle spaces, including industrial heritage, it should be promoted based on positive space experiences by reflecting human emotional change factors, not target-oriented plans.
