Abstract
This bachelor thesis examines the influence of Tactical Urbanism Approaches on the quality of public spaces in the context of sustainable urban development in Berlin. Using three case studies, the study measures key aspects of quality public space (Inclusiveness, Meaningful Activities, Comfort, Safety, Pleasurability) with an adapted version of Mehta's Public Space Index. Data collection took place during the first week of May 2023, encapsulating different times of day. The research indicates that repurposed streets may not inherently provide a more inclusive, comfortable, safe, and pleasurable environment. The findings highlight the significance of context-specific factors and call for deeper investigation into effective interventions reflecting community values. The study concludes by advocating for increased citizen and stakeholder engagement in the design process of TUA initiatives, potentially accelerating their transition from temporary experiments to permanent policies.
