Abstract
When setting benches on pedestrian routes in city center, considering which kind of benches are preferable, especially, for the elderly is important now. In this study, after Kansei Evaluation experiment toward them either living in urban or rural area, I get combination rules of benches components preferred, by using rough set theory analysis. Both select “about 2m width surrounding vacant space of building” with “1,5 minutes sitting”, but detail components are different. Rural aged select setting on wooden tiles with high-backrest and awning, easy to understand as bench and its space. Whereas, urban aged select low-backrest without them (=simple components).
