Abstract
The townscapes of colored pavement can be evaluated for the qualities of their colors and shapes by fractal. While the fractal dimensions for shapes are calculated with box-counting method, the fractal dimensions for colors are computed with the semivariograms constructed by color vectors in CIE chromatograph and space vectors. Both the fractal dimensions of townscapes are greater than ones of natural landscapes. However, the fractality of colors for the former is less than for the latter. In landscape design, fractal dimensions and fractality can be the indicators for evaluating comformity of landscapes and urban construction.
