TO THE ISSUE OF URBAN SPACE IDENTITY: RELEVANCE OF THE DISTINCTION

Abstract

Development of compositional characteristics of the urban environment in various countries has been characterized by a pervasive tendency to unification. In today’s context, the main threat for the architecture is an absence of individuality. Support of the local identity of the architectural space is essential not only in the context of tourism, but, first of all, for the meaningful socio-cultural functioning of a country.
