PERMEABILITY for children can be a c h i e v e d b y p r o v i d i n g interactive spaces. Lack of permea bility ma y lea d to decline of curiosity and dead end routes which may cause bewilderment

LEGIBILITY is how children interact with both physical form and their activity. With high enclosure, no clear node and path develops fear within children cause the space to be unsafe for them.

Maximum on street opening of windows

Limited access to the surrounding urban environment reduces their reach.

Permeability within built form allows children to interact with the built form. No clear roadway and blurred edges due to onstreet parking

OPEN SPACES NETWORK ACTIVITY ZONES

Cluster plan with inward looking open space Access to the surrounding urban environment enhances their movement.

Permeability within built form allows children to interact with the built form. Edge condition of open spaces doesn’t favor children activties. Common road for children with housing facing street provides more eyes

Safe movement along the main street for children helps in traveling alone within the precinct

Permeability from the primary network to secondary leads to formation of inactive spaces. No distinct character to built form and narrow lanes turn into dumping yard. High activity nodes tends to gather more

people which is not preferred by children. Active nodes within the area leads to

formation of safe environment for children Formation of inactive spaces lead to
