WHY A RESEARCH?

To actively contribute to the debate on fear & safety

issues, inquiring their impact in the urban environment through an ethical, political and social point of view.

MASLOW’S PYRAMID

The hierarchy of needs model sug-gests that certain kinds of need are more basic than other kinds and that until these are reasonably satisfied other considerations have little effect on overall satisfaction.

Maslow, 1954

Page 5: Fear as a Design Matter - mapping the reassuring scenario

INTRODUCTION

FROM WHAT?

The path strarts fromcity & surveilled space

to analyze the relationship between city, inhabitants and authority. How does the fair development of daily activities is protected and guaranteed within the complex urban system?

1st RESEARCH QUESTION

Surveillance as the first and faster answer to a raising safety request.But how to inquiry its ecological as-pects and their meanings in the urban context?

M. Surace - Dalla sorveglianza moderna alla New Surveillance - 2013

INTRODUCTION

WHAT FEAR IS?for all

Emotion of pain or uneasiness caused by the sense of impending danger. Such feelings are manifest as a state of constant or intermitted anxiety.

Shorter Oxford English Dictionary

Psycho | Alfred Hitchcock, 1960

Page 8: Fear as a Design Matter - mapping the reassuring scenario

INTRODUCTION

Routine | Miraruido, 2013

Perception of a threat to some as-pect of wellbeing, concurrent with the feeling of inability to meet the challenge.

WHAT FEAR IS?for psychology

A. Van der Wurff and Stringer, 1989

Page 9: Fear as a Design Matter - mapping the reassuring scenario

A construct, the result of different ele-ments that vary from subjectivity and previous experiences to objectivity and real danger around us.

J. Bannister; N. Fyfe - Fear and the City, 2001

WHAT FEAR IS?for sociology

INTRODUCTION

Page 10: Fear as a Design Matter - mapping the reassuring scenario

INTRODUCTION

WHAT FEAR IS?for this research

Through the visual elements, peo-ple effectively read the environment as a barometer of risk and protec-tive factors. Fear is embedded in the physical and social characteristics of place and the familiarity of that space to the individual.

J. Bannister; N. Fyfe - Fear and the City, 2001

Geografia cerebrale | A. Monne, 2012

Page 11: Fear as a Design Matter - mapping the reassuring scenario

Crime and fear of crime may have substantial impacts on wellbeing, but the pathways are often highlyindirect, mediated by environmen-tal factors, difficult to disentangle and not always in the expected direc-tion.

T. Lorenc - Crime, fear of crime, environment, mental health & wellbeing - 2012

INTRODUCTION

THE COMPLEX FRAMEWORK

Framework adapted from T. Lorenc research

Page 12: Fear as a Design Matter - mapping the reassuring scenario

Four main aspects of the framework are the new indicators of the “daily quality of life”. Then, Emotional responses, Interper-sonal Relationships Neighborhood and Community factors allow this re-search to inquiry the soft and the hard aspects that influence the notion of environment.

INTRODUCTION

THE COMPLEX FRAMEWORK

Page 13: Fear as a Design Matter - mapping the reassuring scenario

REASON

SAFE VS. REASSURING

The “fear of...” is not strictly related to the direct experience of crime but rather in how people experience and interpret theurban space. The reassuring concept is wider than the safe one: it opens the research to a multidisciplinary approach and to a more flexible strategy.

Berlin Map | Lisa Hankow, 2012

Page 14: Fear as a Design Matter - mapping the reassuring scenario

SAFE. Design Takes on Risk

“Pressure is around every corner, and human resilience is necessary for survival can be surprising.Such resilience reminds us how pow-erful can be. How safe we are de-pends on our perception of what is at hand and protect us.”

A NEW PATTERN

Page 17: Fear as a Design Matter - mapping the reassuring scenario

UNPLEASANT

An accumulation of urban phenom-ena in which social control and its in-herent design play a significant role in the way we perceive and engage in public space and social interactions.

Savić, Savičić, Unpleasant Design - p 4, 2013

PATTERN

PLEASANT

Rothstein, Unpleasant Design - p 14, 2013

A plateau, it is a state we would hope to achieve for a long, stable, self rein-forced period. It describes the systemic shape of our lives, and the mean which things persist.

HOSTILE

Definition from the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary

An enemy, something which is in oppo-sition, as an environment that doesn’t foster health or wellbeing because of its inhospitable features.

PATTERN

HOSPITABLE

A pleasant environment, favorable for living in.

Definition from the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary

HOSPITABLE CITY

The capability of a city to be open, ac-cessible and sustainable and to be able to manage people mobility, to regener-ate public spaces, to offer an intelligent variety of services.

QUESTION OF QUALITIES

“That’s why cities are ugly or beautiful,

depending on the beauty or ugliness of the streets in which they are made of. and in relation to the energy of hu-man activities they contain.”

WHAT’S NEW?

Afterward the discourse leads to explore the existing design resources to define new methods and strategies to face the raising safety request.

Page 53: Fear as a Design Matter - mapping the reassuring scenario

WHAT’S NEW?

Both of them are inherent to the wid-er notion of beauty as an essential quality of a good environment. Beauty is fundamental to people’s lives, independantly from their cultur-al or geographic background. The perception of beauty, or the lack of it, is part of people’s everyday lives.

CONCLUSION

I, Bauman, Beauty, localism and deprivation - CABE, 2010

Page 54: Fear as a Design Matter - mapping the reassuring scenario

CONCLUSION

The lack of beauty is one of the most immediate ways of recognizing dissat-isfactions and conflicts.Experience is the most popular meth-od of accessing beauty: the ability to have an environment in which people can receive the best of what that it has to give.
