| Title of the article | The concept of a vertical city as an object of designing in conditions of The Sahara desert in the territory of Marzuga, Morocco |
| Abstract. | Problem statement. The concept of «vertical cities» consists, on the one hand, in the redistribution of population density, and on the other hand in the creation of an independent ecosystem within the boundaries of a polyfunctional building. The purpose of the article is to study the existing experience in the field of designing of polyfunctional buildings in the complex environment of the Sahara desert. In this aspect, the main task of the work was the scientific comprehension of the concept of «vertical city» as one of the ways to solve the problem of adapting modern architecture to the existing environment. Urban and architectural theories reflecting the concept of the «vertical city», beginning with the era of Babylonian ziggurats, Renaissance multilevel towers, etc., find a new expression in the modern era in the projects of skyscrapers, high-altitude polyfunctional complexes, in the philosophy of arkology, etc., analyzed with point of view of the studied problems. Results. The analysis of theoretical studies has made it possible to trace a number of principles for designing a vertical city as a polyfunctional building, in the conditions of the Sahara desert. Identify the concept of arkology that underlies the modern projects of vertical cities that behave like a living organism – react to changes in temperature and provide themselves with energy and nutrition. And also to study several examples of such cities and their types. Conclusions. The significance of the research results is revealed in the development of an architectural solution optimal for construction in the Sahara desert (Marzuga), which develops the concept of a «vertical city». |
