In the context of the planning and development of public spaces associated with infrastructure and traffic, many new forms of public space forming styled space underground or inside the building regulations large. The underground space so may initially cause some problems on "psychology" as feeling a lack ventilation or no security. But to overcome this limitation is not too complicated. Project Trade Centre Halles de Seura in Paris also has a planned items as public space in the layout but a lot of trees with a wide entrance and a "superficial" to make sense airy feeling to the user.

In Berlin there are also commercial area and the wide courtyard, right in the heart of the high office buildings, banks and museums. The space was designed in accordance with local climatic conditions, but also to ensure maximum attractiveness of the space "public" for the visitors and consumers. Another area in Berlin's Potsdamer Platz is a small city with a lot of Daimler City public space closed in many forms different forms. Of these, not to mention Sony Center with a very large patio with large dome designed by new technology in the upper ensure create a public space scale is equivalent to a small square and more passage through out.

In Rome, the public space seems to have closed down trend style from ancient Roman times. By the mid-18th century, the map of Rome Giovanni Battista Nolli's famous (1748) also showed the inner space of the religious buildings and courtyard of the palace in the same manner as the space Public open on the streets or squares, thereby creating an abundance of types of public spaces of Rome, as well as the ability to add and dialogue between the spaces. Two centuries later, the unique building as "medieval castle" park music (by architect Renzo Piano design) or the idea of "endless plains" of the Museum of Contemporary Art Roma women by renowned architect Zaha Hadid design has many similarities with the form of "closed" public space and ensure the continuation of the urban structure, but did not create the situation "isolated space public ".

The inclusion of public space inside is also a consequence of the successful application of new technologies of communication in the field of construction. The concept of "intelligent building" corresponds to turn the building into a combination of traditional houses with large-scale interconnected. The connection of the construction of the commercial complex raises questions about the role of public space in the contemporary era that multinational corporations tend to invest in urban centers. Even itself every city also wants to "make yourself" into major commercial development to fulfill all the dynamic qualities and to attract investment and to restore degraded areas. Also in the neighborhood level, to meet the security requirements, many buildings also tend to organize themselves into a closed space while the public space is transformed into a new specialization gradually and was taken inside the block to form complexes closed. These trends are not necessarily a good indicator of living in urban spaces by to get the true public space, the city must extend all your doors.
