| Abstract | ||
| The urban milieu of a campus comprises a intricate constitution of interconnected elements that collectively shape a complex environment. The interrelationships among these elements play a pivotal role in the design of an efficient and sustainable urban framework. This study aims to elucidate the impact of specific physical factors on the visual sustainability of the urban fabric. The University of Mosul campus serves as the case study for this investigation. The research identifies and categorizes the components that influence the mental image of the campus, encompassing both built and unbuilt elements. The methodology employed integrates qualitative and quantitative approaches, utilizing a questionnaire and computer software to analyze the visual properties of the influencing factors. The findings of the study reveal that these characteristics and relationships contribute differentially to the formation of a sustainable urban image, with several factors being instrumental in enhancing and developing the visual sustainability of campus environments, both presently and in the future. | ||
