The design of public urban spaces is widely recognized as crucial for encouraging social interactions. However, the connections between spatial configurations and positive social behaviors remain a complex issue for urban planners striving to cultivate socially sustainable cities. Sociability in public spaces refers to the capability of these areas to facilitate social interactions, which plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality of life. This includes aspects such as the ease of meeting and engaging with others, the presence of social activities, and the overall livability of the space. The morphology of an area can significantly influence its sociability by shaping how people move and interact. This makes Space Syntax particularly valuable for studying sociability, as it can predict how different spatial layouts affect social behavior. View this paper
