| Abstract |
This study is to reveal how differently the various age groups perceive categorized open spaces and public facilities. For this purpose, the landscape factors were established based on the results derived from the theoretical study and the field survey for selected case. The final results from survey demonstrated that across all age groups, the open space landscapes were perceived as the more important type than public facilities. Meanwhile, unlike respondents in the younger age groups who had prioritizes accessibility, those in their forties and fifties perceived pleasantness to be of greater importance, and regarded green spaces and rest areas to be equally important specific components. As different age groups thus have varying perceptions, henceforth when dealing with landscapes it will be necessary to be more prudent and aware of social responses, in particular to take close attention to potential variances in responses according to the variety of age groups. This study illuminates the importance of the impact variable according to age groups on landscape perception, and may be utilized as important foundational data for planning and designing landscapes. |
