Modern Architecture In Old Historical City

by J. Barnas

2nd International Multidisciplinary Scientific Conference on Social Sciences and Arts SGEM2015, Book 4 (2015)

Abstract

The history of the development of cities teaches us that changes to the structure and the model of a city and its constituent parts occur
in a process of evolution. This ceaseless process is stimulated by the development of industry and the growth of the economy,
inducing social changes that generate new needs and expectations. The process of the evolution of an urban organism is irreversible
and its only stable trait is the increasing pace at which the changes take place. The introduction of new spatial structures into historical
urban complexes and their skillful integration with the historical context, as well as the adaptation of existing buildings that have
historical significance is an important issue in European cities. This state of affairs is brought on by a large number of historical
buildings which constitute European cultural heritage and that are clustered in comparatively small areas of more or less dynamically
developing centers of historical cities. These processes can be seen not only in the means of designing the function of buildings, but
also in the design of their form, due to the use of new technologies and construction materials.

The integration of tradition and modernity: a search for an urban and architectural identity in Arriyadhl, the capital of Saudi
Arabia
by Mohammed Abdullah Eben Saleh

Habitat International (1998)

Abstract

About 40 years ago, traditional villages, towns and cities of the Arabian Peninsula started to lose their regional characteristics and
embody modern forms and shapes. Since then, these characteristics have been subject todilution due to social and cultural changes as
well as institutionalized changes imposed by planning and architectural practices. This process creates debate and clashes between
tradition and modernity. Projects carried out since 1975 are the least representative of the regional characteristics but do attempt to
have urban and architectural identity. This paper argues that all the actors in 'design formulation' (clients, architects, urban designers
and planners) are trying to use historic elements in the creation of architectural identities. In fact they are making efforts to create
urban and architectural identity to substitute regional characters. These attitudes flourished a a result of dynamic cultural, economic,
political and ritualistic influences. This paper highlights the importance of urban and architectural identity in architectural and urban
projects in Arriyadh, the capital city of Saudi Arabia because such projects create precedents for other Saudi villages, towns and cities.
The study identifies the forces behind the initiation, transformation and evolution of the urban and architectural identity and attempts
to supplement scholarship in the fields of architecture, urban design, and planning with regard to the role of identity as a tool for
improving the spatial quality of the built environment. Architectural identity participates in setting up meaningful schemata which
influences human behavior as a cultural process. The paper supports the concern for search for historic symbols which may influence
the architectural identity and the quality of perceived environment during the design process of new or transformed physical
environments. The paper views the traditional part of the city as an amalgamation of history and economic interests and its symbolic
importance seems to be a perfect place for the emergence of different forms of engagement between tradition and modernity. The
importance of the traditional part is unique while the importance of continuity of tradition is very likely complementary.

The Scaling Of Green Space Coverage In European Cities

by Richard A. Fuller, Kevin J. Gaston

Biology Letters (2009)

Abstract

Most people on the planet live in dense aggregations, and policy directives emphasize green areas within cities to ameliorate some of
the problems of urban living. Benefits of urban green spaces range from physical and psychological health to social cohesion,
ecosystem service provision and biodiversity conservation. Green space coverage differs enormously among cities, yet little is known
about the correlates or geography of this variation. This is important because urbanization is accelerating and the consequences for
green space are unclear. Here, we use standardized major axis regression to explore the relationships between urban green space
coverage, city area and population size across 386 European cities. We show that green space coverage increases more rapidly than
city area, yet declines only weakly as human population density increases. Thus, green space provision within a city is primarily
related to city area rather than the number of inhabitants that it serves, or a simple space-filling effect. Thus, compact cities (small size
and high density) show very low per capita green space allocation. However, at high levels of urban city, the green space network is
robust to further city compaction. As cities grow, interactions between people and nature depend increasingly on landscape quality
outside formal green space networks, such as street plantings, or the size, composition and management of backyards and gardens.
