Abstract

Picnic Activity plays a role in enhancing the quality of life of urban residents. The objective of this research is to reveal spatial mechanism and taxonomy of urban spaces through spatial experience. We use affordances from Gibson (1986) as a theoretical lens. Bodily experience approach from Pallasmaa (2012) and Lepori and Franck (2000) as method for collecting data. To analyze the data we use the qualitative and grounded theory. The finding is the reaction among actors as spatial experience exhibits spatial mechanism and taxonomy of urban spaces into a new kind of spaces.Â
