LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE AS MEANS OF FORMING AN EMOTIONALLY POSITIVE CONTEXT IN BUFFER ZONES OF CULTURAL HERITAGE OBJECTS

Abstract

The article presents the results of the author's research on the formation of an emotionally positive context in the buffer zones of cultural heritage objects by means of landscape architecture; considered scientific and theoretical base of world research. 
 Buffer zones (according to I. Korotun) are divided into 3 categories: I direct use of the territory; II multifunctional; III combined. The most difficult is the II category of buffer zones "non-direct multifunctional usage". In Ukraine, 4 out of 8 World Heritage sites have buffer zones of non-direct multifunctional use ("Kyiv: St. Sophia Cathedral and nearby monastery buildings, Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, Church of the Savior on Berestov" (1990); "Ensemble of the historical center of Lviv" (1998); "Residence of the Metropolitans of Bukovina and Dalmatia" (2011) and "Historical Center of Odesa" (2023)). The historical city center belongs to the II category of buffer zones, and it is the core of the urbanized environment, where the administrative, transport or combined functions of the city can be concentrated. Multifunctionality makes the city center the place of the greatest activity of people, which in turn forms a prerequisite for the formation of an emotionally positive context. 
 Landscape organization of buffer zones as places of constant circulation of people is a prerequisite for the creation of high-quality space. So, we determined that the formation of an emotionally positive context in the buffer zones of cultural heritage objects can be carried out through the method of "green corridors," which will be connections between activity points or will be multifunctional zones. 
 The formation of an emotionally positive context is a universal method for the landscape organization of urban space within the buffer zones of cultural heritage objects under various urban conditions.
