Urban pockets : a study on small spaces between buildings and their implication to the urban space

Abstract

The city is a fascinating place. It is an image of our culture, economy and beliefs. These rituals and activities within the city are what influenced the physical elements of the city, and give sensitivity to the space as a meaningful place. The modern city has not provided proper architectural setting for the urban activities. The modern city experience has little to offer as a social or cultural experience of place. The city is being mass- produced by developers and the small spaces between buildings become lost as "urban pockets." Which are under utilized and have potentials a positive urban element
