Abstract

The facades of buildings and structures, which form the visual architectural and urban planning environment of a modern city, mainly consist of a variety of facade materials and decorative and (or) functional structural elements. The well-coordinated relationship between them, correlated according to certain compositional principles, creates the attractiveness of the visual perception of the architectural form inscribed in the space of the metropolis. Facades form the space of a modern city, which strives to create forms around itself, the direction of which is set by lines: urban planning lines that organize building and lines that create the architectural appearance of the city - formative. Thus, one way or another, the elements of the architectural and urban space are formed by means of a line. And the line acts as one of the main and primary compositional means of modeling, with the help of which an architectural form is developed. The article analyzes the architectural and compositional solutions of building facades in terms of using the line as a basic form-building tool when solving the facade plane. The general patterns of using the line in the development of facade solutions are revealed, regardless of the time period and stylistic direction. Its role is determined as a universal compositional means of graphic modeling of the external appearance of buildings, thanks to which architectural, structural and decorative elements are located along the facade plane, forming an expressive architectural image.
