It is very important that these materials used are compatible with the environment and suitable for design. Within the scope of this study, different urban furniture produced from wood and wood-based materials were examined in order to improve the existing designs. In the samples examined, urban furniture designed in accordance with general design principles are considered; Determinations were made within the framework of elements such as aesthetics, size, form, ergonomics, functionality, construction, material, durability, safety, layout and economy. In addition, different suggestions and suggestions were given for the development of urban furniture, which is a part of landscape applications, and the emergence of new designs in harmony with nature, by examining the visuality and material types on the sample wooden reinforcements.Keywords : Wood, Landscape, Urban Furniture, Desing, Composite
