1	I en vaken vila : En studie om hur rumsligheter kan informera om valfria aktiviteter i en offentlig exteriör sjukhusmiljö Zetterstrand, Frida January 2024 (has links) This thesis for the Bachelor of Arts in Information Design with a focus on Spatial Design has examined and identified exterior places and their characteristics that contribute to a strong sense of place among residents in Katrineholm Municipality. The aim has been to create a design proposal for a hospital park, which currently functions as a walkway and has several shortcomings relative to its potential and the needs and criticisms of the residents. The study is based on theories and previous research on place attachment and topophilia. Through interviews, site observations and notations, as well as a survey, types of exterior spaces, materials, and activities that promote mental well-being and the factors that contribute to a sense of place and place attachment have been identified. The findings show that both place attachment and topophilic values have subjective qualities and that more factors than a place's aesthetics affect the experience. The empirical data has identified specific characteristics that recreational exterior places should consider and implement in their design. The design proposal presents a conceptual hospital park with the aim of informing about optional activities that users can engage in to promote mental well-being and recovery through spatialities. This is achieved by illustrating how spatial designs through spatial organization, form, and disposition can be perceived and used.
