Abstract:

 The study is an in-depth analysis of residential and mixed-use areas to evaluate the dynamics of landscape identities and their link to human behaviours. This was done by examining the Maitama Amusement Park and the Durban Neighborhood Park in Nigeria's Abuja Central Business districts. The research highlights the significance of Abuja and points out that its unique attribute, and purposeful design, to reinforce unity amongst diverse ethnic groups is imperative for contextualizing the research in the study area. In this way, the study showed that reactions to landscape identities cross and leap beyond ethnic boundaries and that the landscape is a behaviour modifier of ethnic biases. Furthermore, the study highlights the landscape's multiple dimensions and forms to show that it is an ambulatory, dynamic, and fluid phenomenon, inseparably linked with human behaviours and socio-spatial environments.
