In the post-pandemic era,it is necessary to attach great importance to"people-oriented"planning and design in China's urban construction,with a view to improve the environmental quality in a refined manner.This paper addresses the prevalent tendency in rapid urbanization where grand spectacle-driven designs often overweigh the considerations of practical daily use in public space planning.Through an analysis of existing problems and challenges,the paper underscores the necessity for public space building to meet new needs and trends that have emerged with the advancement of the times,highlighting the original intention of"attending to people's needs"to create public places of"daily care".Additionally,it proposes four key principles:easy access by walking,enjoyable and friendly spaces,multi-functional daily use,and place identity and belonging.
