Contemporary trends in inclusive landscape Design of residential urban environments

Abstract

Inclusive landscape design plays a crucial role in shaping residential urban environments that are accessible, aesthetically cohesive, and functionally adaptable for diverse user groups. However, beyond meeting accessibility requirements, the artistic and spatial composition of such spaces is often underexplored. This paper examines contemporary trends in inclusive landscape design, focusing on materiality, sensory experience, and innovative artistic approaches. Through case studies of inclusive urban residential landscapes, key strategies and emerging trends are analyzed, demonstrating how accessibility and aesthetics can be successfully integrated into urban environments.
