Abstract：This paper brings forward that the outdoor space on a community scale is mainly composed of half-public space and half-private space. Thus the authors introduce a concept of shared outdoor space, and elaborates its definition. The autors decompose the components of shared space, dissect its functions and analyze how shared space can take an important effect on stimulating intercourses between residents and attracting more groups of people. According to the outdoor activity theory, this paper sums up a mode how the quality of shared space has influence on outdoor activities. This paper makes a survey on outdoor activities of LongHui Garden community in Shenzhen. The result shows that there are differences between various users who initiate activities in shared outdoor space. Therefore, it is necessary to plan and design shared outdoor space based on different demands of different user groups. The reasonable usage of shared outdoor space reflects humanistic care on the structures and functions in urban community, and the excellent design of shared space performs an un-neglected role on creating an active and harmonious atmosphere of urban life, which also can push the urban community forward to sustainable and ecological community. According to different leading-functions and the characteristics of half-public and half-private space, the outdoor shared space is divided into seven types. This paper brings forward a mode to analize how the seven types of shared outdoor space stimulate the interaction among residents. Based upon the comparison between neighborhood unit space and shared space, this paper integrates the functions of shared space and makes seven types of shared space together into an organic entirety in order to form a shared space which ecological community should have. Finally, the authors summarize a mode for stimulating interaction of the shared space in urban community, and then put forward a reasonable mode for shared outdoor space in urban ecological community.
