Comfortable living conditions for people are created not only by comfortable apartments and cozy houses, but also by what is beyond the threshold of their homes - adjacent open areas between buildings. Comprehensive landscaping of yard areas in high-rise building areas is not just a tribute to modern trends in the development of utility infrastructure. This is an urgent need to create quality living conditions for citizens.
Living in dusty, poorly landscaped, unlandscaped yards has a negative impact on people's he alth. An important aspect of the formation of the living environment is its adaptation to the requirements of comfort for all the inhabitants of the area - a collection of disparate people, united only by their neighborhood, defending various, sometimes mutually exclusive interests. The task of designers is to find a solution that takes into account allopinions.
Organization of transport and pedestrian zones
The landscaping of courtyards requires the proper organization of pedestrian and transport zones. The existing conflict between a person and a car creates a certain discomfort in the courtyard space, therefore, the creation of transportless courtyards and the organization of parking lots and driveways outside them are especially important. But if this way of solving the problem is not possible, it is necessary to take care of the functional delimitation of space for cars and pedestrians with the help of landscaping elements, geoplastics, creating decorative noise-protective walls in the style of a panel, etc.
The landscaping of the territory of the yards is connected with the solution of the problem of the condition of the road surface. For walking paths, paving with gravel is suitable, and for frequently used paths, paving slabs with the organization of curb fencing and drainage systems. Driveways for vehicles are covered with asph alt, the thickness of which depends on the operating conditions and expected loads.
Gardening courtyards
Improvement of the territory of courtyards is impossible without green spaces. Landscaping has not only functional but also aesthetic value, it must be stylish and skillfully organized. The range of plants should be selected taking into account their biological characteristics and climatic zoning.
Usually landscaping the yard with green spacesis carried out according to an individually developed dendrological plan, which takes into account the necessary balance between the areas occupied by trees, shrubs, flower beds and lawns. The compositional solution depends on the specific urban conditions.
Organization of venues
The landscaping of courtyards will not ensure the comfort of living in an area of multi-apartment development, if due attention is not paid to the organization of sites: sports and play areas, for walking dogs, for household needs, for temporary storage of household waste and garbage, etc.
I would like to pay special attention to the fact that when arranging children's playgrounds, one should not be limited to their nomenclature content and simplify the arrangement, making do with the same type of sandboxes, standard swings and slides for kids. It is necessary to pay attention to the intellectual development of the younger generation and take into account modern opportunities when equipping playgrounds for games and sports.
About small architectural forms
The formation of a favorable living environment requires the use of modern small architectural forms and new methods of organizing space. Installing cozy gazebos, arranging fountains and artificial ponds, replacing unattractive fences with beautiful elegant fences, creating competent street lighting and artistic lighting - all this should improve the lifestyle of modern people and give them confidence that the concept of "home" does not end at the threshold of their owndwellings.
