| Title of the article | Principles of the concept urbo-matrix in organization of biosocial tissue of city |
| Abstract. | Cities grow rapidly in an age of intense urbanization, forming agglomeration and conglomeration. At the same time, number of problems is increased, and cities cease to meet the needs of the human. A new anthropogenic urbanized space does not give man to reveal and realize oneself and isolate from nature, which affects the quality of the building environment. It is necessary to create the conditions for human self-realization for the possibility of urban development. Biosocial tissue of the city is the natural and social spaces in a single structure. Within the bounds of the concept of Urbo-Matrix biosocial tissue fills the spaces of the city for moral, creative development and communication with nature. This concept is based on the principle of organism’s work, namely its connective tissue. In the urban space Urbo-Matrix performs similar functions of separation, maintaining, encapsulating, softening connections between different structural elements. Biosocial tissue organization in the concept follows the principles of determining the spatial formation: • Location of the components of urban environment above ground level • The isolation of all modes of transport • Interaction with the ground • Accomplishment of the ground • The prevalence of ground natural landscaping • Location of landscaping and social objects in all functional levels • Connection of horizontal functional levels with vertical communication • Location objects of various functionalities on a pedestrian traffic • Polyfunctionality • Formation of local objects for communication and creativity • Pedestrian accessibility of objects • Forming of sharing nodes between levels and communication links • Connection of green spaces with social and administrative spaces The proposed principles should improve the quality of the environment, increase social activity of people, create the conditions for development and creativity. |
| Keywords. | City, self-actualization, creativity, society, biosocial space, nature, social objects. |
