Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate about going-out activities of the aged and sitting spaces outside. Especially, this study focuses on the bench on sidewalk of road that we placed for this experiment. Senior citizens and undergraduate students participated in this study. We operated the direction of the bench, and the subjects estimated their impression both on the exterior and on the experience. The results of the analysis are as follows; a) Although benches are not used so often, placing them in a suitable position and direction raises the availability of them. b) Most of the subjects prefer sitting on the bench which is set closer to a building and facing toward a road. c) The wooden bench for more than 3 people is prefered by the subjects.
