Abstract

Workshop 3. Session 3.1: Privacy and public life Summary: The perceived liveability of an environment is formed by the apparent liveability. An important aspect of these forms of liveability is the control over social interaction an individual has in a neighbourhood. The motivation and attitude towards social interaction is formed by physical reconditions. A survey on these preconditions in different type of neighbourhoods leads to a model called privacy zoning. Privacy zoning relates control on social interaction to different layers of ‘public’ space. In this paper privacy zoning is explained with different (cross-cultural) examples.
