“…4–5) that paved the way for the investigations of the interplay between global phenomena and local specificities in the formation of the urban night (van Liempt et al., 2015). Furthermore, Chatterton and Hollands (2003) took ‘an approach which is sensitive to processes as well as possibilities’ (p. 4) to frame a flexible concept whose application thrived in research outputs published in English as new lines of research opened focusing on social, cultural, technological and environmental relations co‐producing night space–times, such as research on roles and functions of artificial lighting (Savela, 2023). Meanwhile, the expansion of applications in diverse disciplinary contexts has gone hand in hand with the circulation of the ‘nightscape’ in non‐English scholarly communities, which added layers of meaning to the concept, drawing on the literal understandings of the nightscape as a night‐time landscape and a work of art representing it.…”

To emphasise the contribution of situated perspectives to the advancement of the field, this review provides a genealogy of night studies across southwestern Europe. This interdisciplinary field of research has significantly developed in English‐speaking scholarly communities, and it has only more recently been growing in importance on southwestern European scholars' research agendas. Usually, they produce research outputs in both English and a Romance language. As a result, intertwined lines of scholarly literature emerge and contribute to the advancement of night studies to different degrees, depending on international readers' proficiency in the employed (Romance) language and (inter)disciplinary interests. To help handle this accessibility issue, this review focuses on what brings night studies together, despite their heterogeneity. That is, the geographical understanding of local night space–times as situated phenomena frequently referred to as nightscape. Accordingly, the review suggests reframing the geographical nightscape as a connective concept to bridge the gaps between multilingual and multidisciplinary research, fostering the interpretation and assemblage of hybrid theoretical frameworks for situated investigations that delve into the diverse and interdependent relations co‐producing local night space–times.

“…A percepção humana é processada por filtros do observador, tanto biofísicos, relativos aos sentidos humanos, quanto condutuais, referentes à formação cognitiva de cada indivíduo (Hardt, 2020). Nesse contexto, dentre os métodos de avaliação da qualidade paisagística, destacam-se os decorrentes da contemplação de cenários, resultando em juízos individuais de valores baseados em apreciação essencialmente subjetiva, diferenciada para cenas diurnas e noturnas (Savela, 2023). Milano e Dalcin (2000) comentam que uma paisagem pode ser mais ou menos atrativa, segundo atributos físicos do local observado e condições momentâneas de emoções do observador, enfatizando, entretanto, que sua qualidade varia de acordo com formas, escalas e diversidades espaciais, dentre outras características.…”

Faced with the relevance of perceptual studies for the interpretation of citizens' satisfaction with the landscape of cities and the central problem of the tendency to design nonconformities in urbanized areas, the general objective of the research is to develop a perception essay on urban parks in Curitiba, Paraná, through diagnosis of aesthetic and functional aspects. With a quali-quantitative approach, applied nature and experimental focus, the investigation was based on methodological procedures linked to the interpretation of responses to an online questionnaire, composed of open and closed questions. As answers to the investigative question about what are the preferred form and function characteristics in nine parks in that city, the essayistic results on figurative-aesthetic and orientation-functional variables attest to the guiding hypothesis that some user preferences are not properly considered in the spatial conception, reinforcing the importance of compositional and utilitarian quality for the appropriation of these public spaces. Diante da relevância de estudos perceptuais para a interpretação da satisfação dos cidadãos em relação à paisagem das cidades e da problemática central de tendência a desconformidades projetuais em áreas urbanizadas, o objetivo geral da pesquisa é desenvolver ensaio de percepção sobre parques urbanos em Curitiba, Paraná, por meio de diagnóstico de aspectos estéticos e funcionais. Com abordagem qualiquantitativa, natureza aplicada e enfoque experimental, a investigação foi baseada em procedimentos metodológicos vinculados à interpretação de devolutivas a questionário online, composto por questões abertas e fechadas. Como respostas à pergunta investigativa sobre quais são as características de forma e função preferidas em nove parques da capital paranaense, os resultados ensaísticos sobre variáveis figurativo-estéticas e orientativo-funcionais atestam a hipótese orientadora de que algumas preferências de usuários não são devidamente consideradas na concepção espacial, reforçando a importância da qualidade compositiva e utilitária para a apropriação desses espaços públicos. Palavras-chave: projeto e espaço, qualidade e beleza, permanência e apropriação, sensação e segurança.
