Public space is an important element in city, especially in high population density cities like Hong Kong. The average public space per person is 2 square meters. I would like to propose an app for public spaces. In the app there should be data about the all public spaces in the city, public and private, about their size, facilities available, number of benches, opening hours, etc. It should also tell users the nearest public space near them. Users should be able to give scores to each public space, on comfortableness, accessibility, shades, green elements, cleanliness, etc. With the feedback from app users, the authority should be able to collect more feedback from the public about how to make the public spaces a more welcoming place, and give guidelines to design future public spaces.
