چکیده

در دهه های پایانی قرن بیستم تغییر سریعی در نگرش ها نسبت به طبیعت درمحیط شهری به وجود آمده است که نشان می دهد اگاهی  بیشتری نسبت به طبیعت در میان عموم مردم و متخصصان ایجاد شده است. مزایا و فواید ارتباط با طبیعت توسط روان شناسان محیطی مورد تحقیق وبررسی قرارگرفته است و میتوان گفت که چنین ارتباطی برای سلامت انسان ضروری است و وجود مناطق باز و طبیعی مزایای زیبایی شناسی و روانی زیادی در بر دارد. برای افزایش استفاده عموم از فضاهای سبز شهری بهتر است این فضاها بر اساس ترجیحات و نیازهای عموم مردم طراحی شوند. پژوهش هایی وجود دارد که نشان می دهد در کشورهای غربی و به ویژه اروپایی برخی از مردم به منظر طبیعی و نامنظم در مناطق شهری  اهمیت نمی دهند و  آن را نامرتب ، ناهنجار، بی ارزش یا حتی ترسناک میدانند و منظرهای شهری منظم و طراحی شده را ترجیح میدهند.  این پژوهش دیدگاه  مردم را نسبت به منظرهای ارگانیک شهری در مقایسه با طرح های منظم تر و هندسی بررسی می کند. نظر عموم با استفاده از پرسش نامه با نمونه گیری تصادفی در دو فضای ارگانیک، و منتظم و هندسی مورد سنجش قرار گرفته و این دو شیوه طراحی با هم مقایسه شدند. نتایج نشان میدهد اگرچه استفاده کنندگان از هر دو پارک فواید و ویژگی های مثبت را در هر یک از آنها اشاره می کنند( در جزئیات) اما  به طورکلی جامعه مورد مطالعه درک مشخصی از طراحی ارگانیک و طبیعی نداشته، الگوی شطرنجی را برای فضاهای سبز شهری ترجیح می دهند و برای آن فواید و ارزش های بیشتری قائلند. شناخت درک و دریافت مردم از شیوه های طراحی منظر و توجه به ترجیحات و نیازهای آنها در استفاده از فضاهای سبز می تواند به طراحان منظر در طراحی این فضاها و نیز افزایش استفاده از آنها کمک کند.

چکیده [English]

Apart from providing homes for native wildlife, parks have many values. The last few decades of the 20th century have seen a rapid change in approaches towards nature in the urban environment, which reflects more familiarity with nature amongst the general public and landscape professionals. Benefits and values of contact with nature have been investigated by environmental psychologists. It can be said that such contact is necessary for human health and existence of natural and open spaces have many psychological and aesthetic benefits. Evidence regarding the influence of nature on the health and well-being of individuals and communities has emerged from a number of traditional disciplines such as psychology and in recent fields of research like recreation and leisure. Although much emphasis has been put on urban nature from different perspectives and on preferences of urban natural areas in comparison to built-up areas, studies focusing on perception and preferences of different forms of nature are rather scarce. For increasing use of urban green spaces, it is better that these spaces be designed based on the public’s preferences and needs. There is proof which show that some people do not respond to natural landscapes in urban areas, and view them as messy, worthless or even frightening, and prefer formal and designed landscapes. This research paper examines public attitudes towards urban naturalistic in contrast to designed landscapes. Public opinions was evaluated using site-based questionnaire and random sampling in natural and designed spaces (Lale and Daneshjoo Parks, respectively) and these two methods were then compared. The survey sites should be in the same area and approximately similar in size in order to eliminate possible effect of population differences, distance, and size on perceptions and preferences. Following site selection, a questionnaire was designed to measure public perception and preferences of contrasting landscapes. The questionnaires were conducted on a face-to-face basis with 200 park users (100 per site) at the survey sites. In the next stage, researchers asked them to classify 16 photos of different parks with varied landscape characteristics into 5 groups (very elegant, beautiful, simple, ugly, very ugly). Results demonstrated that the study population did not have a clear understanding of natural and organic design patterns, prefered regular and plaid patterns for urban green spaces and derived more benefits and values from them. Laleh and Daneshjoo Park were appraised as more attractive and safer, respectively. It can be concluded that peace and quiet, safety, nature observation, experiencing seasonal changes and social interactions are rated higher in designed parks (Daneshjoo) and other factors such as contact with nature and being beneficial for wildlife are superior in natural parks (Laleh). Furthermore, natural parks are more effective in creating excitement and sense of freedom in users. On the other hand, designed parks (Daneshjoo) are more calming and have more positive effect such as relief from stress and sense of renewal. Recognizing public perception of landscape design styles and paying attention to their preferences and needs in green spaces can help landscape designers in designing such places and enhancing their use.
