Research on Landscape Design of Waterfront Public Space in Mountainous Cities Based on User Experience — Taking the Waterfront Landscape Design of Art Peninsula in Chongqing as an Example

Abstract

Mountainous cities are dominated by mountainous, hilly, and steep terrain, which brings certain complexity and particularity to the planning and construction of waterfront spaces in these cities compared to plain cities. Waterfront spaces, often serving as the core areas of city development, possess favorable location advantages and special attributes of water-land intersection, giving them more possibilities for functional transformation ^[1]. However, the ultimate goal of design is to provide users with a vibrant waterfront area. The design of waterfront spaces should focus more on people’s behavioral needs, allowing users to feel a good interaction between the place and their behavioral needs during space usage ^[2]. Therefore, the design incorporates human environmental behavior, increases interactive experiences, and enriches spatial interest.
