"As technology advances, the cities we inhabit have transformed into environments that are safer, more comfortable, and more efficient for people. However, in the pursuit of comfort, the elimination of “urban noise” has caused people to lose their physicality—their ability to respond to environmental changes and act through “interest,” “sensation,” and “thought.” Consequently, the spaces traversed between destinations become mere background.
Therefore, this research aims to reevaluate the urban friction that has been excluded from landscape design perspectives and incorporate it into design proposals. By doing so, it seeks to restore the lost connection between people and their environment and reclaim the unconscious transit spaces between destinations as valuable experiential spaces."
