Perceptions Of Colour Form And Amenity In Green Spaces

Hoyle, Helen

Abstract

Designing healthy resilient places for people doesn't need to be too challenging or complicated. We might be best to remember that a landscape-led approach works best, where the landscape comes first, and provides the framework within the built environment is nurtured. We should also be aware that human reactions to places depend both on the aesthetics of the designed landscape itself and the people themselves (see Hoyle, 2020 for discussion). Because people's responses and perceptions are driven by values which vary at the individual and community level, working with local stakeholders including residents, site users, local schools and land-managers provides a positive way forward.
