摘要
The typical representatives of public open spaces in Niksic are analyzed in this paper from the perspective of the subjective visual perception. The research is based on empirical analysis and the semantic differential method. The aim of this paper is to form an objective criterion for the design of desirable public open spaces of the city in the 21st century, based on the subjective assessment of the space through observing twelve photographs of typical visual resources of Niksic, with emphasis on the visual and aesthetic dimension. Research results point out that poly functional, dynamic, associative, homogeneous, inclusive, authentic spaces with lots of natural elements achieve desired visual effect on users. It has been concluded that it is necessary to revitalize certain public open spaces of Niksic as the primary visual resource of the city.
