Conclusions. It is determined that the city design, actively interacting with the art to create a harmonious space of human habitation, covered all components of the city among which are buildings, public space, streets, transport to the landscape. Innovative design trends are aimed at solving not only design and functional, but also aesthetic, environmental and social solutions. They contribute to the maintenance of compositional equilibrium, the formation of a creative environment, and aesthetics prevails over utilitarian. It is emphasized that the use of interactive technologies in design has become a significant component of modern ideas about the comfort of urban space. Modern design is based on the ideas of transformation of abandoned territories into places of public recreation, improving the quality of life, the level of competitiveness of the region, tourist attractiveness of the territory. Modern cities require not only comfortable living for people, but also the development of industrial zones and solving environmental issues, bringing people closer to nature and traditional culture.
