Abstract

People live most of their times by seeing and experiencing the city surrounding them. Over time, unhealthy developments added to this environment through design cannot establish the connection with the existing historical structures and cannot become part of a whole. This results in slip of the environment into a visual chaos and vagueness. These negative issues play a role in weakening of interaction of the people with the environment, and makes hard for people to perceive their environment, resulting in not liking and not preferring the environment.
