Morphology of urban development - the development structure of neighborhoods of a settlement , determined by a combination of several urban typologies of development. In combination with the parameters of the scale of development, it has a significant impact on the quality of the urban environment.
Types of organization of neighborhood development
- Freestanding buildings
Freestanding in an open space separate buildings or groups (rows) of buildings. A typical example is the suburban areas, built up with individual houses and cottages, but, in addition, there are also blocked houses or groups of houses, freely located inside the gardens. The street and open spaces are usually formed not so much by buildings as by green landscaping and front gardens in front of buildings.
- The choice of the main side of the quarter
A continuous line of development along the main side of the quarter , for example, parallel to the public transport route or along the main street. The street space and open spaces along the main side of the quarter are formed by a building front with a possible mixed functional composition. Common examples: a residential building along a main street flanking an adjacent building; quarters with mixed use around the center of gravity of local importance.
- Identification of the main side of the quarter
A continuous line of high density buildings along the main side of the block, for example parallel to the public transport route or along the main street. The increase in building density is due to an increase in scale, or a deeper plan, or the use of typologies with courtyards and atriums . The street space and open spaces along the main side of the quarter are formed by a building front with mixed functions. Common examples: a line of intensive development with mixed functions and increased depth of the plan strengthens the main side of the quarter of perimeter development; intensive development with mixed functions along public transport lines.
- Formed perimeter
The development along the entire perimeter of the quarter forms clearer boundaries of open spaces than stand-alone buildings. The street space and open spaces around the entire block are formed by the front of the building with gaps distributed along the perimeter of the building, opening a view of the courtyard.
- Continuous perimeter
Perimeter development, forming large blocks or clusters. The street space and open spaces around the entire block are formed by the development front.
- Quarterly development
The large size of the blocks allows building within the block. The scale of buildings in the courtyards should always be small, with a maximum of 3 floors, to form a comfortable environment.
