Each area usage reflects as spatial practicing which represents the relationship between government strategy and locals’ tactic. Towards situation based design, researcher has to understand on-site situations and analyzes through conditions of physical design and social relations. The study process provides with 3 sessions; (A) Case study selection is to select potential areas where appear shared space characteristic by street photograph, (B) Flexible use is on-site observation to understand organizing public area usages by interviewing and data collecting, (C) Mixed-use characteristic, this session sets to record street films to characterize mixed-use design feature on those area usages. Towards analysis session, researcher finalized architectural design feature by finalizing isometric section drawing to understand relations of physical design and social relations.
