Research on the Correlation Between Space Variables of Inner Street Interface in Commercial Complex and Pedestrian Activities

Abstract

The reactions of pedestrians in commercial inner streets are the mapping of inner space variables in commercial buildings. In this paper, the author selected Xi’an Lijia Village Wanda Shopping Center and the MixC Shenzhen as the comparative research cases. According to the analysis on space variables of inner street interface in commercial complex and the collection of pedestrian stay activity data, the coherence and correlation between space variable of inner street interface in commercial buildings and pedestrian activities are researched based on the principle of environment-behavior studies and the deduction of linear regression model. The research findings are as follows: Space Penetration rate is a key factor to affect all kinds of pedestrian activities; the proportion of the shopping corridors, along with the mixing degree of the storefront functions, has a promotion effect on social activities, and the density of a storefront has a positive impact on pedestrians’ commercial activities. The author puts forward some ideas and suggestions on the relevant design of the inner street interface space in the commercial complex by reference to the design concepts of urban commercial pedestrian streets proposed by domestic and overseas research scholars.
