Alle, as an extension of ‘street’ in university campuses, is the constructive spatial structure in campus design and as a result it should be (both physical and mental) spine of design policy. The main question of the paper is: how the spatial appropriation differentiates via walking practice at allein selected two cases with reference to differentiated design policies of spatial hierarchy at campuses.
