Yoshida, K.(Sapporo School of the Arts (Japan))
Since the sprawling phenomena in many cities in Japan, urban fringe landscapes including urban and rural developments have shown us many scenery problems which were caused by land-use combined with urban dwellings, farmland and forests. Also urban fringe landscapes include many transitional areas and scenes. On the other hand, recent landscape improvement, such as the Act for Landscape and Greenery (2004), has been necessary to create and maintain many landscapes from residents' point of views in many cases. In the urban fringe areas, it's important to examine landscape evaluation from both subjective and objective points of view. This paper examines landscape elements and evaluation factors of roadsides, districts, farmlands, riversides etc. in the city of Sapporo. In addition, investigations have been made for the improvement and conservation of the present landscape.
