Abstrakt
The text draws attention to the significant role of landscape formations surrounding the city and their role in marking out directions for the transformation and development of urban areas with the particular emphasis on public spaces. The article presents the need for a more conscious design strategies that are based on connectedness of urban spaces, which is built on landscape's characteristics, as an essential starting point for developing a strategy of urban transformation in such a way that development would not contribute to the loss of landscape identity but enhance it. The article refers to the case of Gdańsk, including an analysis of the role of water in its development and its transformations. It stipulates the advantages of re-defining the city and searching for its once-lost relations with the embracing landscapes, particularly with the landscape of the Vistula River delta's polder.
