Urban parks are inseparable part of green spaces that have been recognized for developing the surrounding environment’s quality. Aesthetic comprehension in Urban Pocket Parks, as an environment which contains various stimuli, is influenced by multi-sensory perception that includes the integration of non-visual (tactile, auditory and olfactory) and visual stimuli. As the current research’s objective was to determine the impact of multi-sensory on visual preferences, Structural Equations Model results on 16 Urban Pocket Parks in Tabriz, Iran, revealed that there was a significant relation between visual preferences and Sound (Human and Natural sounds), and Smell (Human-Body and Natural smells) stimuli, however, the influence of touch stimuli on visual preferences had not identified significant. As a consequence, evaluating the public experience of Natural Sound-Smell Stimuli and the Human-body Sound-Smell Stimuli are essential in designing urban pocket parks; accordingly, city planners and landscape architects can enhance users’ visual preferences by considering these stimuli.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
