The article addresses the issue of continuous development in the visual appearance of a historical city, which is considered as a dynamic structure the reference points of which are visual figurative constants accumulating figurative layers from various historical epochs of the city. The structure and types of such constants are determined. These are needed when analyzing the visual image system of the city and its further development. The interaction of the figurative constants with the communication and natural frameworks defines the image of the city taking into account its historical identity, and is the basis for the design of new urban spaces.

Evolution of the visual image of the historical city

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №2 (82) June, 2023

The article is devoted to the development of methods for studying the image of a city in the course of its historical evolution. Basing on available theories underlying urban space image studies, we identified essential approaches that allow the evolutionary dynamics of a city’s visual image to be retraced in its history. These principles were summarized in the form of a theoretical model demonstrating the mechanism of continuous development by which the visual image of the city evolves historically. The conclusion outlines the structure and content of the image of a historical city.
