Street Performance: Leave Space for Crowds

A street performance node in a pedestrian zone. This location is designed: it is situated at an enlarged node of the street rather than on the main thoroughfare, so onlookers do not block the flow of traffic; there is a circular area on the ground, approximately six meters in diameter, with a different paving material to indicate the performance area; nearby, there is a curved seating ledge and a few steps, providing natural viewing seats and forming a semi-enclosure; a ground power socket is available nearby. The image shows a performer within the circle, with about thirty people forming a semicircle to watch, while street traffic smoothly bypasses on the outside. Avoid: placing the performance area in the center of the main thoroughfare, eliminating ground area indicators, allowing onlookers to block the entire street, or omitting seating and power facilities.

一個徒步區中的街頭表演節點。這個位置經過設計:它位於街道的一處放大節點而不是主要通行帶上,因此圍觀的人群不會堵住動線;地面上有一圈直徑約六公尺的不同鋪面暗示表演的範圍;周邊有一道弧形的坐檻與幾階台階,提供自然的觀看座位並形成半圍合;附近有一個供電的地面插孔。畫面中一位表演者在圈內,約三十人圍成半圓觀看,而街道的通行仍然順暢地從外側繞過。避免:把表演區設在主要通行帶中央、消除地面的範圍暗示、讓圍觀人群堵住整條街、省略座位與供電設施。
