Abstract
Understand that forming urban images and improving urban identity play an important role in the competitiveness of cities with resident-participating villages, local governments began to focus on selection and management of physical components to form urban identity. Recently, when the quality of urban scenes is posed as a problem, urban beautification projects including urban environment reorganization and scenery management are being actively conducted in many cities. The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the characteristics of cases of Japan, England, and USA in which the local governments conduct resident-participating villages to establish a frame of analysis, to classify the purposes, directions, contents and properties of projects, scenes, and formation of villages based on the established frame of analysis, to deduce suggestions from the view of urban scenes and formation of villages, and to present basic measures for developing projects with which local residents can form villages centered on urban scenes subjectively and autonomously in Korean local communities in the near future.
