The Perception of Urban Space : Participants in the Process and Their Role in the Space

Arnold Bernaciak



Abstract

The article presents the most important issues related to the perception and valorization of urban space by different groups of users. The first part of the article describes the theoretical approaches to the perception of urban space by presenting concepts from Kevin Lynch and Yi Fu Tuan. After which, it distinguishes the main groups of participants in the perception process and their role in the space. In the last part of the paper, the theoretical implications of the causeeffect chain for the process of valorisation of space are proposed and described. This is done in the form of a chain of assessment and transformation of the space. The primary aim of this article was to show the theoretical foundations of perception processes of urban space, including a presentation of the model of the "new perception," in the case of changes in urban space.(original abstract)
