Neste estudo, a análise fractal é aplicada à avaliação da complexidade visual de edifícios históricos e ambientes naturais circundantes. A dimensão fractal e suas aproximações, encontradas via o método da contagem de caixas (“box-counting method”), são usadas para definir a complexidade geral e local de imagens digitalizadas de edifícios e paisagens. As propriedades essenciais do método da contagem de caixas são discutidas, e uma versão otimizada do método é elaborada. A hipótese da existência de relação entre o nível de complexidade fractal de ambientes construídos e de paisagens naturais é analisada para o caso conhecido da cidade de Amasya, na Turquia e, também, para duas cidades históricas brasileiras, Ouro Preto e Pelotas. Os resultados obtidos evidenciam uma ligação forte entre a dinâmica espacial de dimensões fractais de ambientes construídos e naturais.
