In this study, we tried to make clear the relation between visual phenomena and the composition of city buildings, and explain the visual quality obtained from our experiences in each urban place. We researched two areas:(Chayamachi-area and the area in front of Osaka station) These areas were different in terms of scale, building forms, and densities of the arrangements. As a result, we could classify the visual phenomena into sixteen types. We also found that these visual phenomena were expressed in the relation between our walking routes and the composition of buildings. In Chayamachi area where small buildings stand closely together, visual phenomena changes dynamically with a little move. In front of Osaka station, where large buildings stand separately, the visual phenomena changes gradually.
