Abstract :
AbstractCreating legible urban environments is one of the most important issues that humans have faced in designing urban environments. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the efficiency of nodes, paths, edges, etc. in urban streets in relation to induction of readability to the people and to study the strengths and weaknesses of each of these components and to analyze their impact on sense enhancement. Belongs to the place. The hypothesis of this study is that enhancing the quality of readability is an effective and efficient step towards promoting a sense of place. In order to evaluate the efficiency of readability components in urban environments, Kohsar Boulevard of Tehran is studied as an example. In this study, field study and questionnaire analysis were used. After evaluating each of the readability components, the effect of each component on sense of place is determined by regression analysis to identify the indicators of sense of place belonging in Kohsar Boulevard. The results show that among the legibility components, only edge and node variables have a significance level of less than 1% and have a positive effect on enhancing sense of place in Kohsar Boulevard. So the sense of belonging to a place depends on the edge and the knot with a linear equation. Examination of pairwise relation between readability components and sense of place shows that node components (with correlation coefficient;); edge) with correlation coefficient;)% and path) with Pearson correlation coefficient; Face-to-face is directly related. The sign component with a correlation coefficient of 1% has a weak relationship with sense of place. But there is no relationship between the domain variable and the sense of place.
