“…Proactive spatial interventions of environmental factors in residential areas can improve residents' health. [54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64] However, research on the impact of built environment quality elements on the subjective well-being of older people after the quality of the neighborhood environment in settlements has been improved is lacking. The study examines the current practice of multi-quality renewal in existing Dalian neighborhoods, examining the differences in the impact of multi-quality elements on the subjective well-being of the older adults in different neighborhood environment types, and observing the degree of change in the subjective well-being of the older adults from the standpoint of psychological resilience.…”

“…31 As a result, mental activity and emotional affect are often used as a manifestation or moderator of well-being, as well as ways to express well-being. 53 Some studies have also found a strong link between the residential environment, housing, and health, [54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64] and Li Shuran and Chen Changhui argue that paying attention to the special needs of the older adults for their living environment is beneficial to their physical and mental health; 54 Zhang and Lin et al proactive spatial interventions in residential environmental factors can have a positive impact on residents' health and promote China's health. 55 Currently, there has been little research on the impact of built environment quality elements on the subjective wellbeing of older people following environmental quality improvements (Figure 1).…”

Background: With the expansion of comprehensive renovation projects in China's old residential areas, residents' actual sense of access and well-being has become a source of concern. As the population in old residential areas ages, the results of old renovation will have a significant impact on the older adults quality of life and subjective well-being. Purpose: To date, most relevant studies have focused on urban and community scales, with little discussion of the impact of neighborhood-level renewal outcomes on the well-being of older adults. As a result, the purpose of this research is to optimize the quality renewal elements of existing old residential areas based on the results of their renovation in order to create a more livable living environment for older adults in existing old residential areas. Methods: Based on a survey of old neighborhoods in Dalian, the study examines the mediating effect of psychological resilience between multi-quality renewal elements and the subjective well-being of the older adults, and it discusses the influence of multiquality renewal elements on the subjective well-being of the older adults in different residential types. Results: According to the findings, multi-quality renewal elements of residence positively predicted the subjective well-being of the older adults; there was a significant mediating effect of psychological resilience between the renewal elements and subjective wellbeing of the older adults. The study confirms that multiple quality renewal elements can contribute to older people's subjective wellbeing, and that psychological resilience plays an important role in the selection of multiple quality renewal elements and older people's subjective well-being. Conclusion:The research provides guidance for the establishment of health-oriented approaches to environmental restoration in residential areas for the sustainable development of communities and cities.

“…Some studies comparatively measure the quality of squares and public open spaces with the indexes created by mathematical expression of the variables obtained using survey and observation techniques (Mehta, 2014;Terzi et al, 2019;Praliya & Garg, 2019). The study on market squares, which is a public space that reflects intense human interaction, has revealed that there is a connection between the built environment, human relations and well-being (Agboola et al, 2018).…”

The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between spatial configuration and spatial quality, and how they affect each other. Spatial quality is a sophisticated concept and encompasses physical, social, economic, cultural and environmental components. Urban squares reflect these parameters and also play a decisive role in urban identity as areas of apparent urban culture and collective memory. Spatial configuration also determines the character of the squares as a result of morphological feature of cities. In the study, qualitative and quantitative methods are used together. Initially, the case study was conducted on two pier squares, San Marco Square (Venice) and Beşiktaş Square (Istanbul) according to fifty public space quality parameters. Secondly, morphological analysis was performed through space syntax method. It has been investigated whether there is a connection between spatial configuration and the factors determining the quality of space or not. As a result, it has been revealed that the spatial configuration is one of the determining factors being assessed the quality of the space, however, it does not provide sufficient data alone. The importance of this article is that it proposes an analytical approach that includes both quantitative and qualitative components of spatial quality.

“…In each city, constraints and opportunities should be wholly addressed to reflect peculiar urban systems of environmental, social and economic life [22]. It has been observed that the system of transportation impacts the liveability of contemporary cities in real-life situations [23] and that social integration [24] and resource management enhances resilience and durability in cities [25]. In point of fact, the interactions between dwellers, infrastructure and transport networks are the undergirding of the micro-structure of sustainable cities [26].…”

In view of the dramatic increase in the population of world cities, the necessities of aesthetic urban planning have increased. Addressing the aesthetics problems of urban spaces implies working with new models of aesthetic cities for developing comprehensive urban planning. This study highlights the importance of the consideration of urban aesthetics in the urban planning process using the qualitative grounded theory study as the main methodology. The study further showed the need for planners to consider economic and social outputs in planning considerations. The study contributes that the planning process should be tailored to implement aesthetic inherited planning into urban planning management.
