This learning resource focuses on collecting and analyzing foot traffic data in three different urban environments to assess the effectiveness of architectural designs in fostering social interaction and placemaking. It involves recording movement patterns, distinguishing between transient and stationary behaviors, and evaluating the characteristics of spaces that promote community engagement.

The exercise encourages direct observation, critical thinking about urban design, and understanding the dynamics of public spaces.
