Abstract: Within an overall socio-ecological and perceptual approach, the paper broadens the discussion upon sustainability and urban environmental improvement, establishing the contribution of a strategic landscape planning design to the durable future and resilience of our cities. The Thessaloniki’s Strategic Green Plan, a project that proposes an urban green network, both emerges from and is giving to the cityscape its lost identity. Through the landscape planning example, as well as the Agias Sofia’s landscape design project, we present same innovative ideas supported by the multidimensional approach, socio-ecological and perceptual one.
Key words: landscape architecture, resilience, urban landscape, greenways
