Aesthetical principles in degraded landscape rehabilitation.
Journal Title: Advances in Environmental Sciences - International Journal of the Bioflux Society - Year 2010, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Human influenced or naturally degraded landscapes rehabilitation requires reliable scientific solutions, for their agricultural and silvicultural development as well as for their reintegration in the productive and/or ecological circuit. In this process, it is recommended to be taken into account several aesthetic principles as well, given the fact that landscapes, in terms of aesthetics, are considered either “aesthetic” or “unaesthetic”. In terms of aesthetics, degraded landscape rehabilitation proves to be a difficult task, because it is almost impossible to recreate the real, expressive, living unity of nature.
