摘要:A contemporary park composition derives from English landscaping school. Contrary to the classical English approach, essential is to provide a park visitor with freedom of choice of destination, a possibility to explore, discover and feel the natural rules of the park. In the contemporary understanding, a park as a result of landscaping architecture has to be interconnected with its imminent and wider surroundings, site environment, soil and climactic conditions, infrastructure, and last but not least a local community. An urban park shall undoubtedly remain to be a place where an urban man seeks out contact with nature that evokes natural feeling of harmony, relaxation and peace. Hence it is obvious that composition of modern parks and Urban green areas must originate from principles of nature-like scenes with utilization of natural grouping of herbal and wooden species while maintaining architectural harmony of environment.
