The importance of urban green spaces in terms of human mental and physical health is increasing daily. In recent years, it has been determined that green areas with Perceived Sensory Dimensions have positive effects on human mental and physical health. In this context, it is aimed to evaluate the Turistik Park located in Aydın province of Efeler district within the scope of Perceived Sensory Dimensions and to make a design that will make this park more suitable for Perceived Sensory Dimensions. In line with the purpose of the study, the status of the Turistik Park was examined according to the 8 Perceived Sensory Dimensions, and the park's current status was determined. Subsequently, it has been redesigned to ensure compliance with the Perceived Sensory Dimensions of the Turistik Park. It was determined that the current status of Turistik Park received 29.8 points out of 80 points. After redesigning the Touristic Park, the park received 60.5 points out of 80 points, making it more suitable for Perceived Sensory Dimensions.

Algısal Duyu Karakteristikleri Kapsamında Kentsel Yeşil Alan Değerlendirmesi: Aydın Turistik Park Örneği

Öz

Kentsel yeşil alanların insan ruh ve beden sağlığı açısından önemi her geçen gün artmaktadır. Öyle ki, son yıllarda Algısal Duyu Karakteristik özelliklerine sahip yeşil alanların insan ruh ve beden sağlığına olumlu etkileri olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu kapsamda, bu çalışmada Aydın ili Efeler ilçesinde yer alan Turistik Park’ı Algısal Duyu Karakteristikleri kapsamında değerlendirmek ve bu parkı Algısal Duyu Karakteristikleri özelliklerine daha uygun hale getirecek tasarımın yapılması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmanın amacı doğrultusunda Turistik Park’ın durumu 8 Algısal Duyu Karakteristik özelliklerine göre irdelenmiş ve parkın güncel durumu tespit edilmiştir. Devamında Turistik Park’ın Algısal Duyu Karakteristik özelliklerine uyumluluğunu sağlamak için yeniden tasarlanmıştır. Yapılan değerlendirme Turistik Park’ın mevcut durumunun 80 puan üzerinden 29,8 puan aldığı belirlenmiştir. Turistik Park’ın yeniden tasarlanması sonrasında park 80 puan üzerinden 60,5 puan alarak Algısal Duyu Karakteristik özelliklerine daha uygun hale getirilmiştir.
