Review of Aesthetic Components in ‘Sponge City’: Toward Sustainable Urban Stormwater Management
Sponge city is a concept designed based on nature-based solutions. The sponge city can prevent the increase of floods and urban runoff in rainy cities and flood-prone countries. Aesthetics is one of the components of the ‘sponge city.’ It is essential to highlight the aesthetic components in urban stormwater management as they are important in public health and quality of life. This study aims to review the current development of sponge city and focuses on the aesthetic components, which should be taken into consideration during the implementation of sponge city. It was found that typology of green space elements, climate comfort, and material are the key components of visual richness sensory, one of the branches of the aesthetic aspects has a significant linkage to the features of sponge city.
