Exploring the Relationship between Design Approach and Play Value of Outdoor Play Spaces
  • Exploring the Relationship between Design Approach and Play Value of Outdoor Play Spaces

  • The paper reports research that explores the relationship between approaches to the design of outdoor play spaces and the play value of these spaces. It starts by explaining that there is an assumption that an outdoor space in the Kit, Fence, Carpet
  • (KFC) style provides fewer opportunities for play than spaces designed in a more natural way. To test this hypothesis an evaluation tool is developed that draws upon a range of academic literature. This tool was tested on 10 sites in the East Midlands
  • in England. The results indicate that there is a continuum between KFC and more natural spaces with a mid-category of ‘composite’ spaces.#This paper reports research that explores the relationship between approaches to the ‘design’ of outdoor play spaces

A discussion of terms for the description of the space-time of relief
  • A discussion of terms for the description of the space-time of relief
  • Concept ; Geomorphological mapping ; Geomorphology ; Methodology ; Relief ; Space time
  • The spatial-temporal structure of relief in space and time can be described in terms based on three initial concepts: spatial organisation, hierarchical succession, and morphological succession. The indivisible space-time of relief is defined
  • by five dimensional coordinates: time, three coordinates of Euclidean space, coordinate expressing the group of characteristics, that is the level of organisation achieved. Because of the indivisible nature of space-time geomorphology needs to rediscover
Creating parallel public spaces through private governments : a South African case study
  • Creating parallel public spaces through private governments : a South African case study
  • Cape Town ; Neighbourhood ; Post-apartheid ; Public space ; Security ; Segregation ; South Africa ; Town ; Urban area ; Western Cape
  • This paper argues that in central Cape Town different public spaces exist parallel to each other, continuing the long history of dysfunctional public spaces in South Africa. Privately policed public spaces are distinctly different from regular
  • , not privately governed spaces, they have become more public than they were before. Through time different public spaces developed their own cultures, norms and values. This continues, with the non-white poor congregating in regular open spaces and a white class
  • in a parallel set of open spaces.

Variations of spacings between beach cusps discussed in relation to edge wave theory
  • Variations of spacings between beach cusps discussed in relation to edge wave theory
  • Variations in cusp spacings of beach cusp systems have been examined, and the conclusion is that the apparent regularity of the spacings is not always real. Established edge wave theory predicts equal cusp spacings, and accordingly, the theory needs
