“…In particular, the movement and place classificationswhile specific to Melbourne in this studyemphasise the function of streets, both in movement and place terms, in shaping the use of different transport modes. The implication is that the results help to validate the use of Movement and Place frameworks that are emerging across Australia (Department of Transport, 2019;Diemer et al, 2018), alongside the existing Link and Place framework in the United Kingdom (Jones et al, 2007;Jones et al, 2008) and Complete Streets movement in the United States (Dehghanmongabadi & Hoskara, 2022).…”

“…By means of a questionnaire in Tokyo's large railway terminals, Li, Yamamoto, and Morikawa [53] verified the importance of different types of shops at station areas producing different atmospheres. From a micro, user-oriented perspective, successful retail at station areas is often associated with the number, attractiveness, and diversity of shops [54][55][56][57].…”

“…Last, as gateways to city centers, the atmosphere, image, and design of public spaces around stations have been involved in the discussions of "quality at station areas" for enhancing the sense of place and gathering people [56][57][58][59] (Table 3). Public space attached to stations has been studied mostly from a design perspective [60].…”

Incorporating users’ experiences in transport hub (re)development has become paramount, especially in the case of (high-speed) railway stations located in central urban locations. Designing “quality” according to users' perspectives requires that we rethink about the dimensions to be prioritized, but also consider the variegated perspectives of users. Drawing on data from a survey of 452 users of the Amsterdam Central station area in the Netherlands, the relative importance of three value perspectives (node, place, and experience) on place quality were assessed through exploratory factor analysis. Seven quality factors were identified. Furthermore, relationships between socio-demographic characteristics and quality perceptions were simultaneously analyzed using a path analysis. The outcome showed that age and gender play a key role in explaining different quality perceptions. Senior citizens attach a higher importance to basic needs and safety and advanced services, while women also find wayfinding important. Moreover, education and visiting purpose influence other aspects of place quality perception, such as shopping or transfer. These findings provide a better understanding of place quality considerations in railway station areas in general and can serve as guidelines for the improvement of Amsterdam Central station, in particular.

Buildings, Faces, Songs of Alienation: How Interiority Transforms the Meaning Out There

This paper presents a theoretical framework that explores visual meaning in the design and use of interior space. It is comprised of three main parts. The first outlines the framework and draws on several key theories. The second introduces three very different constructs as case studies that in#uence (or are a product of) spatial quality, namely: buildings, faces, and songs of alienation. The third part is a discussion about how each of these three constructs are linked to each other as well as to the idea of interiority. While architectural forms are containers of meaning, the way in which interior space is curated is driven by deeper meaning–one that transcends form and function because people ultimately produce the meaning. And because each person is different, the conditions of interiority (in this case, the meaning that resides within each person) drives the meaning of external constructs that act as enclosures of meaning (buildings and their interiors). The findings are that the mind and body can be projected beyond the facade and into the spaces contained in the buildings we occupy. The role of technology is also important because changes in technology help mediate the process of linking the meaning inside with the meaning out there.
