Description
Fan Liya, Lai Yuqing, Hu Zhouni, Zheng Wenhui, and Zhou Tao published a 2025 urban study on how lakeside public space shapes what residents do outdoors in Nanchang, China. The team paired behavior setting theory with geographic mapping around Qingshan Lake. People Space interaction, they argue, should be measured, not assumed.
Using data from several sources, the authors charted where and when residents gather, what they do, and how those patterns meet the layout of paths, shores, and facilities. They built a dynamic model of that interaction. From the findings they propose targeted small scale renewal strategies in five areas: safety and resilience, seamless connections, ecological integration, story rich environments, and spaces that invite activity. The approach is offered as a template for other urban waterfronts.
