Novel Landscape Quantitative Evaluation Method for External Space of Hospital

Abstract:

Based on analyzing the psychology reception of informants for external space of hospital, a novel landscape quantitative evaluation method was proposed in this study. An external space of hospital was selected and researched for illustrated the proposed method. After investigating the psychology reception from informants, Kansei words were designated. Then, a model and a quantify analysis were carried out. Next, according to quantify analysis results, the external space of hospital was evaluated objectively. This study resolved the traditional concept that landscape evaluation owing to feelings. Therefore, this study has a big significant on providing more theoretical research and design methods for not only external space of hospital but even of urban green space design in future.
