Evaluation and Analysis of traditional town landscape

Abstract

In this study, we investigated how the colors (red and white) of the vending machines virtually installed by CG would affect the traditional landscape. In addition, the harmony of the color of a vending machine with the surrounding landscape and the comparison between in case where there is an advertisement or nothing etc. were also experimented. Landscape samples of around the Takayama city were evaluated by 20 subjects using SD techniques. The results of our experiments show that the vending machines have great influence on the surrounding landscape. On the other hand, we confirmed that they can harmonize with the circumference landscape by the color used.
