Meaningfullness and the perceivable form of the urban landscape

Description

The perceivable form of the physical landscape structures, serves and enhances experience, creating the conditions, the organisation of the sensory experience that is the source of the meanings/meaningfulness each of us derives from, or attributes to the environment. Its sensory qualities are inherent attributes of the physical environment, which serves as a stimulus or catalyst for the transaction between people and the landscape. Thus, the main question for research urban landscapes through narratives is not whether visitors consciously perceive what is there to be perceived—the meaning we derive from the urban environment, as an asset of the perceiver—but to unearth what it is that the place holds—as an asset of the perceived, the perceivable form of the urban landscape.
