| Popis: | 103 The present understanding of the concept of landscape, compare to those of the past, has more emphasis on human involvement and perception. Landscape planning has been suggested to incorporate human perception as it plays an important role in shaping landscape. Nevertheless, a gap remains between perceptual data and practical information. How perception could be processed to inform practitioners’ decisions is little known. Hence, this paper began with clarifying the meaning and definition of the present idea of “landscape”. Then, taking this understanding and based on grounded theory and an understanding about practitioners’ needs, this paper developed a methodological framework to explore how perception could be applied and the extent to which it could benefit practice. The findings show that the present idea of “landscape” has three aspects, the physical, perceptual and time. Peoples’ perceptual constructs, as the key part of the framework, include landscape characters, values and changes that indicate required practical information. Furthermore, physical elements and non-physical factors constitute landscape characters; landscape values comprise land development, aesthetic appreciation and internal meanings; landscape changes mean a reflection of local life. These imply landscape planning is not merely for practitioners but for all sectors of communities, and striking the better balance between development and conservation is needed, as landscape involves local distinct features and population’s collective identity. |
