It is important to analyze the relationship between the user and space by approaching the physical environment in a visual context, identifying existing and potential problems and proposing solutions to strengthen the public life of cities. Şehit Fethi Sekin Park, which also possesses sentimental values and love of homeland in its name, has been analyzed visually, and the design approach has been examined and the relationship between physical environment and user behaviour has been interpreted. The study was carried out in the example of Şehit Fethi Sekin Park in Bayraklı District of İzmir. In the first stage, the research area was generally photographed and the visual impressions were taken into consideration by the first impressions of the environment, the remarkable elements, the factors that reduce / increase the visual quality and the features that make the settlement different. In the second stage, the research area was evaluated in terms of spatial, sensory and social aspects. In the last stage, the research area was observed and photographed on the basis of environment -user -behaviour, and used and unused sections of the study area were determined. In addition, user behaviours and the physical environment in which this behaviours take place were handled together and the effects of environmental factors on user behaviours were revealed. As a result of the study, although it was tried to create interesting designs and sub-spaces, it was determined that the intended usage intensity could not be achieved and it was predicted that improvements that would not disturb the traditional structure of the study area would make significant contributions to the socialization of the public.

“…11 'Locality' is inherent in the local natural characteristics and cultural characteristics 12 and is the key to prove and maintain self and local identity in urban and rural landscape. Less relevant research considers the perspective of entire cities, whereas more studies address architecture and neighbourhood scales, focusing on local identity and the perception of a specific part of the city [13][14][15] that lacks a macro-geographical and environmental perspective. Although previous research has indicated the relationship between urbanization and local cultural homogeneity, 16 there is little discussion on the different stages of urbanization from a cultural perspective.…”

What makes a place special? Research on the locality of cities in the Yellow River and Rhine River Basins based on Street View Images

Globalization and urbanization have caused unprecedented impacts in local identification and cultural protection, and rivers that cross administrative boundaries have attracted attention in the protection of local cultural heritage, resource integration and mobilization. This study selected several cities in the Yellow River Basin and the Rhine River Basin as examples, using street view images, combining locality theory with computer vision analysis methods, and proposing a framework for quantitative research on locality expression. Then the generation mechanism of the local characteristics was discussed. The results show that the cities in the two countries show significant differences, whereas some cities in the basin are similar. The images of the ‘Built Environment' and ‘Social Life' are more conducive to identifying the cities. The construction qualities of ‘Remains' and ‘Water' are the key built environmental factors for the coexistence of locality differences and similarities. The protection of historic buildings and less manual intervention in the water environment are of great significance to the local shaping of German cities and have reference value for developing Chinese cities. The research responds to the homogenization of the urban landscape, the symbiotic relationship between cities and water, and sustainable development in river basin cities.

Visual impact assessment studies are reasonably substantial to understand an environment which has different features. The aim of this study is to evaluate the visual impact of the Istanbul Land-wall and contribute to future design/planning stages. For this purpose, the study area was separated into four different spatial usages which are recreational, transportation, agricultural and neglected places. Twenty-four different photographs were taken and a survey was conducted upon an expert and a public sample group. The public survey included four parameters: well-kept, exciting, safety and beautiful scenery. The expert survey also involved four parameters which were coherence, imageability, stewardship and historicity. One-way ANOVA test was conducted to reveal sample groups’ effect on the preferences. The results showed that the average scores of photographs evaluated by public and experts were 11.07 and 9.80 scores respectively. In the public survey, the photograph, has the lowest scores for all parameters, was Photo-11 (P11). Experts’ result shows particularly that historicity is lower than the others although the area is a historical region. Specifically, neglected places obtained lower scores than the other spatial types. Consequently, the Istanbul Land-wall does not have adequate visual quality regarding the selected parameters.
