Research on Renewal Design of Public Space in Old Residential Areas Based on Light Demand
This paper aims to explore updated design concepts and application strategies for creating high-quality lighting scenarios and environmental aesthetics in public spaces within older residential communities.The investigation takes the Tianjin Benxi Building Complex as a case study that employs methods such as questionnaire surveys,interview observations,demand cards,and behavioral annotations to analyze the dynamic relationships among the distribution of environmental resources,resident activity types,behavioral characteristics,and lighting requirements in public spaces.From this analysis,the paper proposes design principles that prioritize lighting,emphasize spatial integrity,encourage shared boundaries,and ensure scalability.The study implements application strategies such as functional integration and lighting adaptation,site borrowing and transitional demand,scenario focus,and group sharing for the residential area space types,which include mixed-use streets,flexible boundaries,and open activity spaces.These strategies effectively enhance the utilization of lighting resources in public spaces,as well as the precision of spatial and facility functionality adaptation.Consequently,residents can experience an improved lighting environment during their daily activities.
