Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to deepenunderstanding of the variables working in the perceptionprocess of a newly integrated building in an urban heritage area.The paper examines user’s perceptions of the newly designedbuilding façades from the angle of insertion in its environment.We tried to understand how physical features impact onperception of building insertion quality.On that purpose, we conducted a survey on architecturestudents familiar with the site. The analyses of theresearch-helped de highlight relevant variable when designing anew building in an urban heritage area.This article reviews formal and symbolic variables in orderto find out the correlation with the evaluative Reponses. Wescope our research regarding the insertion of a building in anurban heritage area and we focus in especially with the buildingexteriors in the mean of producing design recommendationbased on aesthetic variables.
