Colour Plan of Residential Area of Almaty City on the Basis of Architectural Design Code

The intensification of construction, typical for most Kazakhstani cities today, entails the densification of buildings in the central part, including areas with historical architecture. This allows us to talk about the need to form a new view of architectural objects to preserve the unified architectural appearance of cities based on architectural design codes. In this case, the creation of a non-standard solution is based on the use of a variety of compositional principles and techniques, including the use of a rich color palette. In almost all cases, the use of color needs to be substantiated, which leads to disparate color ratios in the organization of cities' environments, and Almaty is no exception. This research aims to develop a method for coloristic organization of the residential area of the city of Almaty using architectural design code. The article discusses the analysis of color characteristics of various historical periods of development of the city of Almaty, identifying key elements of architectural design code and their applicability to the modern practice of urban environment design. The research methodology is based on the literature analysis and research on the topic of colorism and its application in architectural design code. Observations and data collection were also carried out on the existing structure of the city of Almaty and its problems regarding the coloristic organization of space. The result of the study is the development of recommendations for creating a harmonious color picture of the city of Almaty based on the identified methods and principles. The work includes the following key aspects: a review of architectural codes and regulations, an assessment of visual perception of different color schemes, and their impact on social interaction and the psycho-emotional state of residents. Through techniques such as questionnaires and visual surveys, data on residents' preferences for color schemes were collected, allowing the development of recommendations for creating a color plan that takes into account the characteristic features and cultural aspects of the region. The study's results can be used to further develop urban planning and architectural design codes in Almaty and other regions of Kazakhstan.
