Vladivostok waterfront, as an object of sustainable design renovation

Abstract: The article examines the theory and practice of transforming the urban environment in the context of the restoration of the original ecosystems of urbanized marine coastal areas. The theoretical basis of the research is based on the principles of ecological architecture and urbanism, according to which a comfortable urban environment is formed primarily through the preservation and restoration of the original natural context, and the inclusion of natural systems in the urban environment. It is this approach to the architectural and ecological renovation of urbanized marine waterfront areas in regional conditions that should ensure the stability of the built environment to growing climatic changes, provide the population of cities with resources of clean water and air, and contribute to the formation of a favorable temperature and humidity microclimate for buildings.

Based on a review of world experience, the article identifies three main areas of architectural and ecological renovation of the waterfront of waterfront: reproduction of lost natural landscapes by architectural and urban planning tools, restoration of original natural landscapes and the introduction of new landscape forms. As a result of the assessment of the initial and current state of the Vladivostok coastline, priority areas for architectural and ecological renovation of the city coast were proposed, and experimental project proposals for the renovation of the coast and the littoral zone of industrial territories located in the innermost part of the Golden Horn, Diomid and Ulysses bays were developed. The main directions for the development and implementation of the complex approach to the architectural and ecological renovation of an urbanized coastline in the conditions of the southern coast of Primorsky Krai are proposed.
