A Study on the Image Characteristics of Urban Landscapes in Yeosu

This study aims to examine actual conditions of image of urban landscapes in Yeosu where the Expo 2012 Yeosu will be held and draw its orientation, and provide basic materials for increasing effectiveness in maintaining and managing urban image in future. As a result of the study, it was found that the factors affecting the landscape satisfaction of old downtown areas examined included stability, sense of scale, naturalness and comfortableness and those of new downtown areas were stability, sense of scale, comfortableness and easiness. Therefore, it was considered that for improving the images of these landscapes, old downtown areas need to relieve gap in the scale between new and old buildings, high-dense buildings, that is, subdivision of regional district and expansion of urban infrastructures including street network and public site, and new downtown areas have the landscape formed by systematic management, but require concerns on encouraging design for upper stories and harmony of high-storied buildings with the surroundings through management of difference in scale between general buildings and high-storied apartment houses and of irregular shapes which are not harmonized with natural environment, color, shape and advertisement of high-storied buildings, and activation of incentive system.
