Visual attributes of vegetation in urban landscape

Abstract

The work deals with the evaluation of the visual attributes of vegetation composition such as dimension, shape, colour, texture, proportionality, structure and dominance. It is an attempt how to objectively evaluate the basic combinations of architectonic and vegetation elements. It is generally focused on vegetation areas serving several functions. The only differences are in determination of criterions needed for the evaluation and for the proposal of new composition. The methodology has been tested on the model area of the Pribina square in Nitra.
