Exploration of Aesthetic Principles for Urban Agriculture KCI 등재
pp.1-10
The purpose of this work is to identify key factors that determine the spatial and physical appearance of urban agriculture, and to discuss ways to encourage its acceptance in public open spaces and the wider context of urban landscape. Because perceptions of urban agriculture are historically related to poverty and wartime, agricultural initiatives in the public realm are often considered visually disturbing, unkempt, and inconvenient. Depending on the context, typology, and scale, several obstacles to successful urban agriculture can be addressed; these include resource pollution, the lack of community involvement, and access to land. In an urban context, agricultural projects are often criticized for their lack of appropriate aesthetic values. By exploring theoretical assumptions through a review of the literature on visual landscape quality assessment, this study analyzes three international cases of urban agriculture in different physical and social contexts. After analyzing the relevant theories and cases, we have identified general principles that lead to the successful implementation of urban agriculture. We conclude that aesthetic values can be most successfully expressed in urban agriculture by identifying and efficiently implementing an approach that combines context, design, materiality, plant selection, and functionality. This study will help to promote resilient and sustainable urban landscapes that help to meet the demand for fresh food and healthy lifestyles, while making a positive contribution in the areas of environmental pollution, energy consumption, waste management, labor shortage, social exclusion, community participation, and rapidly expanding urbanization.
