The purpose of this paper is to comprehend the historic streetscape in the old town of Stockholm, Gamla Stan. As a result, the historic streetscapes are classified into four categories -'homogeneous', 'diverse of figure', 'diverse of ground', and 'complicated'- based on the concept of 'homogeneity - diversity', and 'figure - ground'. The usefulness of these categories was found through a description of characteristics of Gamla Stan, which involves both homogeneity and diversity from not only the viewpoint of each building, but streetscape and district. Finally, the paper indicates that homogeneity and diversity brings the attractiveness in Gamla Stan.
