AESTHETICS
AESTHETICS
For example, one movement grew out of the environmental design and planning
disciplines, such as landscape architecture, and attempts to analyse and assess
aesthetic experience in terms of the design features recognized and valued by these
disciplines.
Another kind of empirical work is more closely aligned with resource and recreational
management and focuses on measuring aesthetic preferences of different individuals
for different environments.
Scope of Environmental Aesthetics
The second broadening of the scope of environmental aesthetics concerns its subject
matter and may be charted on three scales.
One scale runs from wilderness, through rural landscapes, to cityscapes, neighborhood,
shopping centers and beyond.
A second scale ranges over size. Many typical objects treated by environmental
aesthetics are rather large environments: mountain ranges, countryside, market
places. (the field also considers smaller and more intimate environments, such as
backyards, offices, living rooms, as well as the objects, both large and small, that
populate various environments).
The third scale ranges from the extraordinary to the ordinary, from the exotic to the
mundane. Just as environmental aesthetics is not limited to the large, nor is it
limited to the spectacular. Ordinary scenery, commonplace sights, and our day-to-
day environments are proper objects of aesthetic appreciation.
1.2 Short history
Concern with how people feel Are concerned with objectification and
knowledge
Attention to sensory quality coupled with sensitive urban design can alleviate
this problem
