Kuznietsova Y. Architectural form making of nature-integrated buildings and constructions

The dissertation research covers nature-integrated architecture not only as an interdisciplinary phenomenon, but also as a manifestation of new formal strategies and methods of design and form making. The purpose of the study is to determine the methods and principles of architectural design of nature-integrated buildings and constructions. The scientific novelty of the results is that the study for the first time identified methods of architectural design of buildings and constructions using natural components ("green camouflage", "natural deconstruction", "green" combinatoric, "natural mimicry", metaphorical, image-combinatorial and watermorphic methods) and corresponding principles and techniques; revealed the general principles of architectural formation of nature-integrated buildings and constructions ("renaturalization" and "dematerialization" of the architectural form, energy efficiency of buildings, compensation of the natural environment); developed the technique of the analysis of architectural formation of nature-integrated buildings and constructions
