This paper aims to examine the state of undeveloped spaces in urban areas. The first part of the paper focuses on the state of the urban landscape's undeveloped spaces. To recognize their character and quality, the Narrative Spatial Analytics (NSA) method was proposed. It integrates three design research techniques which enable landscape designers to expand the scope of their research practice. The second part of the paper discusses a case study of neglected green space in the Laush settlement in Banjaluka, which could be incorporated into the Banjaluka green matrix. The phases of the solution concept for the arrangement of a new park and the elaboration details were analyzed, which completed the process of improving the Banjaluka green matrix.
