Abstract
Statement of the problem. The aim of the study is to analyse the basic elements of creating visual comfort in the urban environment in the conditions of the renovation of the existing development of Russian small towns. Results. The main results of the research are the development of the syntactic context of architecture in urban space; the definition of the architectural language as the basis for the formation of compositional characteristics of visual comfort in urban space. Conclusions. The significance of the obtained results lies in the novelty of the approach to the mechanism of updating the architectural environment of cities based on the reform of the visual characteristics of the existing buildings; in the interpretation of architectural forms that reveal the original qualities of urban architecture. The use of the methodological basis of the mechanism of visual renewal of the architectural environment and the formation of urban space as a meaningful context that reveals individual characteristics to the viewer who is in the space of the city. At the same time, the visual-figurative context of the architectural environment of cities acquires a meaningful meaning, which allows us to comprehensively consider the process of renovation of existing buildings, including the tool for visual-spatial construction of architectural solutions.
Highlights
The existing architectural and spatial organization of urban development has its own distinctive features
Residential areas within cities differ in visual-perceived characteristics, and their visual image is not formed
The visual image of the architecture of cities is necessary to create a visual comfort for the viewers who stay in them
Summary
The existing architectural and spatial organization of urban development has its own distinctive features. Changing the silhouette by the mechanism of floor-by-floor reconstruction of standard series of housing stock in residential areas; architectural solutions to eliminate empty spaces between the blind ends of buildings; the formation of architectural dominants as urban planning landmarks; the use of tiering in architectural solutions. The diversity and richness of the compositional and spatial characteristics that form the syntax of the architectural language is clearly demonstrated in the historical environment (Fig. 1b) in relation to the conditional and schematic model solution of the building (Fig. 2b). We can conclude that it is necessary to use the compositional aspects of the architectural language as a spatial renovation of urban areas with existing buildings. The approach of compositional construction of the architectural environment in the context of the readable language is an updated method of urban renewal in modern cities
