HOW CHILDREN USE URBAN SPACE IN TWO DIFFERENT NEIGHBOURHOODS IN BERGEN, NORWAY:Proceedings of the 12th Space Syntax Symposium 405-6
The municipality in Bergen in Norway is now facilitating a compact urban development consisting of high number of dwellings, offices and services on limited available urban space. Both politically and professionally there is a growing wish for families with young children to settle in these central urban areas. Through in-depth interviews with parents of young children, we have conducted surveys regarding residential qualities and city condensement. An investigation was made on how the parents’ choice of residence, available outdoor space, the qualitative and quantitative spatial morphology of the neighbourhood, social living quality, traffic scape, children’s mobility, proximity, and transport, affect the informants’ quality of life. In addition, we have conducted interviews with a developer, a city planner, and two representatives from the Bergen Municipality Planning Department. The interviews with professional participants highlight the opinions and viewpoints of parents of young children. Various spatial analyses and registration of the children’s behaviour in urban space of the neighbourhoods Laksevåg and Møhlenpris were carried out. Various types of street profiles, various space syntax analyses, as well as urban micro scale analyses (the topological relationship between private and public space) are carried out, and compared with the static snapshots of children on one sunny Saturday (the first spring day with sun in Bergen) at the same time in both neighbourhoods. As the results show, the spatial layouts on streets and their adjacent buildings matters, in particular on micro scale level. The available outdoor areas are hardly used in Laksevåg, whereas the outdoor facilities in Møhlenpris are well frequented. Laksevåg has several segregated un-constituted and low inter-visible streets with many topological steps between private and public space. Laksevåg’s types of street profiles facilitate vehicle transport with small or no pavements, making the area childunfriendly. Møhlenpris has a highly integrated ...
