THE MAIN TRENDS AND DIRECTIONS OF THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AND REGENERATION OF THE HISTORICAL ENVIRONMENT

Objective: The purpose of this study is an attempt to reveal and analyze the modern trends and directions of the sustainable development and regeneration of the historical environment from the point of view of the harmonious combination of new and historical architecture and to define some methodological principles of its design at the different hierarchical levels. Theoretical Framework: The study is grounded in a thorough literature review that examines existing research and is based on international scientific publications, reports, scientific papers. Diverse practical materials in the area under study were used as well as own experience in designing urban complexes and buildings in the historical environment. Methods: This study is based on a set of scientific research methods, using an extensive review of literature, Internet resources, and the views of stakeholders. Preference was given to methods such as comparative analysis, synthesis, generalization, complex and systemic approaches. Results: Research identifies key areas of the development and regeneration of the complexes and buildings in the historical environment, which can be divided into several directions. The features, conditions, and directions of such implementations on various examples are examined in this study. Some methodological principles of designing in historical areas at different hierarchical levels are considered. Research Implications: Implications of the study: The results and recommendations of this study will be useful for contemporary design practice, may increase awareness of project management in the field of architecture and urban planning, and help to manage practice in this field more effectively.
