Study On The Optimization Model Of Urban Community Edge Space Design Based On Restorative Environment Theory

The fast pace and high stress of modern urban life has triggered many physical and mental health problems among residents,and the public health of residents has been increasingly concerned by the impact of the new crown epidemic.In recent years,restorative environment theory has been widely discussed in China,and the theory is important for alleviating residents’ physical and mental health problems and releasing mental stress.At present,most of the research on restorative environment theory is focused on large public spaces such as community parks,community theatres and community squares,but less research has been conducted on small and medium-sized places that are used very frequently in the daily life of communities.The restorative potential of marginal spaces has been greatly underestimated.Therefore,this paper explores the restorative dimensions of the restorative effects of community residents,constructs a restorative environment framework for community marginal spaces based on environmental and demand elements,analyses the relationship between environmental and demand elements in community marginal spaces and their influence paths,and then conducts field research on marginal spaces in four communities in Wuhan’s Wuchang District.The analysis of the restorative effects and influence mechanisms of environmental and demand elements in community marginal spaces is then carried out through the data from the interviews and questionnaires,and the realistic needs of restorative environments in community marginal spaces are explored to provide theoretical support for the design and enhancement methods of restorative environments in community marginal spaces.Finally,based on the discussion of the restorative elements of the restorative environment in community marginal spaces and the generalisation of field research and data analysis,the design principles of the restorative environment in community marginal spaces are summarised,and the structural system of the restorative environment in community marginal spaces is constructed through the coupling analysis of the spatial environment system and the demand system.The design optimisation model was tested on four communities in order to provide a practical design reference for the creation of restorative environments in urban communities and to improve the quality of restorative environments in urban public green spaces.
