Abstract

Aesthetics, though based on fixed criteria, may be perceived differently across time and place. This article examines the impact of the components of the aesthetics assessments in urban spaces (pedestrian roads) and the way residents perceive it. First, it studies the theories of aesthetics and the way it has been perceived. Then, through a survey and interviewing different groups of people, assesses the aesthetics impact of case under study. Finally, it concludes that visual aesthetics alone cannot satisfy residents; rather their views should be taken into account.
