Description
Summary:The purpose of the article is to explore the continually changing and developing universe of urban planning practices, to study approaches, methods, and theoretical and design tools that is changing the European city. The methodology of the research is to apply the empirical method, to analyze and compare the results of the developed projects. Scientific novelty. On the basis of practical design and theoretical generalization, we have defined such principles of the urban design: hybridize multiple uses, hybridize city and landscape, hybridize city, rural and infrastructure, hybridize city «low rise», as the existing city, with forms of «high rise» city. Conclusions. In modern urban and landscape design emerges is a pluralistic horizon, with piecemeal and eclectic approaches, through which a common European profile of urban transformation shines, respectful of the essence, values, and customs of the existing city, aware of operating within the conflicts induced by the processes of innovation and adaptation of the city itself, processes necessary for its protection and survival.
