Abstract

The article considers the methods of public space research on the subject of their efficiency of use, quality, accessibility and inclusiveness, spatial planning and compositional characteristics. The main focus is on the quality of public space and quality characteristics. In the study of public spaces, we analyze four basic groups of characteristics: 1) the functioning of the space and the way it is used; 2) planning, volumetric and spatial features of space, including typology and compositional analysis; 3) analysis of elements of public spaces; 4) the quality of public space, which includes four basic research sub-layers: accessibility; comfort and image; use and activity; sociability. In addition, in order to meet modern ideas about quality public space, it should be humane and people-oriented, inclusive for different social groups of users, ecological and sustainable, safe and individualistic, non-conflict, cost-effective, local and atypical.
