Abstract
With the development of economy, people have higher and higher requirements for living art. A good ecological environment is the guarantee of creating an aesthetic environment. Taking the ecological environment construction of ecological town as an example, this paper analyses the importance of integrating artistic elements into the ecological environment construction in the new era from the perspective of environmental aesthetics. Based on the concept of "three life integration" and "garden city theory", this paper creatively puts forward the construction methods and models of ecological environment in contemporary small towns. Based on the height of environmental aesthetics, this paper analyses the planning and construction process of characteristic town and the evaluation and acceptance criteria of ecological environment design, summarises its successful experience and main problems, and makes a retrospective summary and reflection. This paper analyses the importance of the integration of art elements into the ecological town in the new era. The results show that in the new era of ecological environment construction, the integration of art elements can not only improve the quality of ecological environment construction, but also improve the common people's cognition of ecological beauty.
