Abstract

Visual quality of urban spaces is an important component in the process of research and development of the physical structure of the built environment. It establishes a comfortable and satisfying experience for the community. A good visual image of urban space will lead to positive perceptions and meanings stimulating the community to produce a good reaction to its urban space. The purpose of this study is to extract the most effective landscape elements that affect the visual quality which contribute designers to make better decisions for designing urban spaces. From this point of view the paper aims to identify the landscape elements and the visual design element that enhance the visual quality of urban spaces. Then the paper will rank the most effective landscape elements according to their influence on the visual design elements from the experts (urban designer and architects) point of view to reach the main objective of the paper which is to create a prospected framework for the urban designer and architects to help them in future decisions in designing landscape elements that promote the visual quality of urban spaces.
