The article assumes that, where social networks can develop from the practice of sport in public spaces, there is a better chance of maintaining said \u2018quality of life\u2019 in the respective spaces and for those that use them. The specific focus of this paper draws on a perspective offered by \u2018user-centred\u2019 design practice to analyse how certain elements found in public spaces can combine to define or communicate visual codes, which to many people may just appear as disconnected specific details of spaces, but which to practitioners of particular sports, the same elements communicate as key \u2018ingredients\u2019 sought by that sporting activity and its associated social networks. Accordingly the \u2018visual codes\u2019 emitted by a space play a part in determining if sport is \u2018played\u2019 there or not, and if so &#8211; which type(s) and between who.<br \/>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n <div class=\"tags\"> <p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> <span>Affordance<\/span>, <span>Appropriation<\/span>, <span>Interpretation<\/span>, <span>Spatial Design<\/span>, <span>Visual Code<\/span><\/p> <\/div> \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abstract This paper consolidates some of what was learned from a visual, design-focussed research approach to studies of public spaces used for sporting activity.
