- Abstract
The environment of the modern city suffers various conflicts, e.g. infrastructural, functional or compositional. In studies on the city’s morphology, the types and kinds of hard-to-avoid problem areas are considered. These areas are usually formed in the course of natural structuring caused by unpredicted phenomena and unplanned development. It is extremely difficult to change the functioning of such territories, to overcome functional overlapping, and trace logics in the transport network. The types of problematic territories with a conflict nature have been studied and classified in the field of urban morphology: fringe belts, “joints”, fixation lines (H. Luis 1936, M.P. Conzen 2009, J.W.R. Whitehand 2019, T. Ünlü 2014, V. Olivera 2008, 2018), economic reason for their formation; “terrain vague” (failures of urban fabric) (1996); contact zones (Yavein, 1978); buffer zones (Kukina, 2006), etc. The architectural work has gained a considerable experience in mastering these problems. With a radical change in space, form and image of usually marginal territories in the past, the functional structure, traditional processes are preserved and developed, expressing eye-catching images of the modern architecture or the subtlety of balanced solutions.
