MODERN ARCHITECTURE IN OLD HISTORICAL CITY
Abstract
The history of the development of cities teaches us that changes to the structure and the model of a city and its constituent parts occur in a process of evolution. This ceaseless process is stimulated by the development of industry and the growth of the economy, inducing social changes that generate new needs and expectations. The process of the evolution of an urban organism is irreversible and its only stable trait is the increasing pace at which the changes take place. The introduction of new spatial structures into historical urban complexes and their skillful integration with the historical context, as well as the adaptation of existing buildings that have historical significance is an important issue in European cities. This state of affairs is brought on by a large number of historical buildings which constitute European cultural heritage and that are clustered in comparatively small areas of more or less dynamically developing centers of historical cities. These processes can be seen not only in the means of designing the function of buildings, but also in the design of their form, due to the use of new technologies and construction materials.
