In master's thesis, we evaluated the scale and characteristics of the contemporary business zones (BZ) visual impact. Our main goal was to define, which BZ have the largest impact on landscape visual quality in Ljubljana urban region (LUR). Visual impact assessments of business zones were done by selecting multiple interrelated criterion. We were also researching, how the public perceives contemporary BZ. In the empirical part of the thesis, we descriptively evaluated the visual impact of the selected zones. After identification and selection of the zones, we prepared visibility analysis, which were used as a basis for descriptive landscape character evaluation. Additionally, we also implemented an online image-based survey about the visual preferences of the zones. Results of both methodological approaches acknowledge BZ as a visually disturbing element in the landscape. Consequently, we suggested possible measures for reducing negative visual impact. |
