How to create a space for high learning performance and high functionality of teaching is a new challenge for campus’ space professions. The campus space is designed for users on the campus, that is, to make the space serving the user’s demand will let it easy to access, or the space will be futile. Through the procedure of greening space, the space will let the users have the willingness to approach, and it will meet the user’ demand of the space, therefore, attaining the goal of spatial improvement in green. In the other point of view, campus is not just for human activity; user’s experience created from campus’ outdoor recreational environment is another part of the campus.

Thus, the purpose of the study is “to explore the positive impacts in people''s psychological response from campus green space”. This study carries out the pretest and posttest for study objects. Through the stimulation experiments of campus’ space beautification, the study investigates the degree of space greening between pretest and posttest, thus to probe the special relationships between the effect of respondents’ satisfaction, environmental restoration and consciousness recovering from greening stimulation in campus space beautification. Study results of pretest and posttest of overall campus space satisfaction, the average scores of posttest in " Fifth floor "," Sixth floor "," Seventh floor " and "Eighth floor" are significantly higher than pretest, that is, it has a significantly changed in users’ satisfaction after the space greening, and it also represent that the procedure of greening space in campus could enhance the students’ satisfaction. According to the benefit in environmental recovery of consciousness, planting the green vegetation can mostly show the recovery features of “Being away”, “Fascination” and “Compatibility”. In addition, the study which is integrating campus’ space and natural environment displays that the diversity from environmental features will influence the prediction of recovering consciousness. However, different kinds of campus greening will bring to different benefits of recovery.
