Digital social networking in public space- Evaluation

Abstract

This paper sets out the role of social media that can influence the people to stay connected via social networking for meeting up in public spaces. People increasingly use gadgets like laptop and mobile to stay connected for virtual interaction in outdoors. It generates a strong connection and creates more opportunity to socialize and share knowledge with rest of the world. This research paper aims to find the implication of digital social networking for new ways to use public space.

Design proposals are made for each square that aim to satisfy the needs of users of the modern generation with defined informal seating spaces and place making for various activities to influence the people flow by using virtual social media. Thereby virtual interaction will be able to initiate meetings in real life creating livelier city center.
