Ukrainian cities today operate in a dual logic: they respond to the consequences of the war and at the same time make up for decades of postponed decisions in urban development. Most spaces are still formed according to an outdated car-centric model - an excess of hard surfaces, parking "to the door", a shortage of shade and natural infrastructure. Such a structure is vulnerable to climate change and does not create conditions for comfortable living. Global trends are moving in the opposite direction: environmental design is becoming a tool for urban development. River restoration, nature-oriented solutions, tactical urbanism, green corridors - it is not only about ecology, but also about the formation of a competitive urban image. High-quality space increases the duration of people's stay and supports the local economy. In a column for PRAGMATIKA.MEDIA, Anna Kornilova, head of the landscape architecture department of the archimatika company, says that for Ukraine this is a chance to move from asphalt logic to an environment that works for the well-being of residents and at the same time takes into account global standards of urban sustainability, which we do not yet have at the level of mandatory norms.
