标题:Crisis of the city as an idea on the example of structural transformation of housing development. Urban agriculture as an antidote for suburbanization
摘要:The paper aims to present the phenomenon of transgression of
contemporary urban living space as the main manifestation of the crisis of
urbanity idea through forming new spatial units defining the city in relation
to extra-urban functions. Due to the rapidly progressing process of
urbanization, cities are beginning to occupy every available space in large
parts of the world. That is why the idea of a closed city is becoming rapidly
outdated, and open forms adopted by them and connected with the rural
landscape have caused the problem of defining a new concept of
contemporary urban-rural space. Although often reasons for this
phenomenon are seen only in the progressing suburbanization interrupting
the continuity of urban structures, this problem is much more complex and
related to the search for an alternative to the outdated form of the city.
The paper includes an analysis of the phenomenon, one of the
manifestations of which is the emergence of downtown and suburban
housing estates that combine urban features with food production.
Examples of implementation illustrate the analysis of transformations,
which gave rise to the new idea of urban living. The designed estates are
both an element disrupting the city's dense tissue, but also becoming
a determinant of the next level of self-sufficiency of urban inhabitants -
both structural, functional, energetic and also nutritional from potentially
adverse external conditions.
