Short description: The subject concerns the designing of contemporary public green spaces, including parks, squares and local utilities. The scope of the lectures include topics related to the design of public greenery (their form, function, design trends, design principles and laws). Workshops concern elaboration of the concept of development of the green area supported by researches and analyzes.
Full description: Within the course there are presented different types of urban green areas, their functions, their program and equipment. There are the modern design trends discussed, with reference to historical changes. The attention is paid to functional and spatial arrangements, as well as the equipment of public green areas, types of paving, landscaping elements. There are presented rules of cataloguing, studies, pre-design analysis and design principles as well as legal acts concerning the design of green areas.
