健康场所视角下商业空间中儿童活动场地分析——以南京为例

Analysis of Children’s Activity Places in Commercial Space from the Perspective of Healthy Places: A Case Study of Nanjing

近年来,城市中大中型商业空间中相继出现了儿童的游戏场地。此类场所集中了一定数量游戏设施并且兼有儿童日间短时托管的作用,往往具有较高的利用率,儿童在此多进行中高强度的体力活动。本研究以南京两处大型商业空间中儿童活动场地为例,对室内环境质量和儿童活动进行调研,以探讨其作为健康场所的可能并提出改进措施。研究发现场地的空气质量、热环境均优于同期室外环境,儿童在场地中能够参与一定时长的体力活动并锻炼身体技能。在建设健康城市和儿童友好城市的过程中,此类场所虽然多为经营性空间,但在室内空气质量易于调控的情况下其促进体力活动的健康价值不应被忽略。结合选址与布局、场地设计、经营模式、政策引导等有望更好地发挥此类场地健康场所的作用。

In recent years,children’s playgrounds have appeared in large and medium-sized commercial spaces in cities.Such places gather a certain number of play facilities and have the function of short-term day care for children,which often has a high utilization rate,and children are more likely to engage in moderate to high intensity physical activity.In this study we investigated the indoor environmental quality and children’s activities in two large-scale commercial spaces in Nanjing,so as to explore the possibility of using them as healthy places and to propose improvement measures.The study found that the air quality and thermal environment of the site were better than the outdoor environment at the same time,and children were able to do physical activities and to exercise physical skills for a certain period of time in the site.In the process of building healthy cities and child-friendly cities,although such places are mostly commercial spaces,their health value of promoting physical activity should not be ignored.The combination of site selection,interior design,business model and policy guidance will help to increase the reasonable distribution of such sites and better play the role of healthy places in urban construction.
