Sustainable development is possible with a balance and harmony in social, economic and environmental terms. This harmony constitutes the trivet on which the landscape planning is established. Change and conversion is established on sound grounds with sustainable usage. A landscape is shaped as a result of the perceptions, needs and behaviors of its habitants, visitors and users. Assessing landscape elements located in different character areas with their typology is a method that facilitates perception studies. It will be possible to shape landscapes by placing ideas in a faster manner with typological generalizations on the structural elements of each character. In this study, simulations have been formed over different scenarios for the purpose of assessing rural area elements in a typological manner, and these images have been subjected to participant assessment with the Preference Experiment (PE). As a result, linear, massive and scattered elements were determined as the outstanding typology of Mountain Landscape; curved and segmental elements were determined as the outstanding typology of Water Front Landscape; and linear, point and scattered elements were determined as the outstanding typology of Plain Landscape.
