  • Abstract in English : The visual quality of the Mediterrenean Island of Gozo is one of the major selling points of the island. Which landscape elements do potential tourists prefer and which landscapes are preferred by Gozitans and Maltese? The concept and results of an academic studio on visual perception, carried out by international landscape architecture students are described below. The article introduces the method used in selecting representative images, their evaluation and indicates the need for further implementation strategies.
