Abstract

Many cities suffer overpopulation and the presence of obsolete underutilised areas which sometimes are located in central city areas. Urban regeneration is an effective tool to “breathe life” into such spaces. Urban regeneration has become common in the last few decades; there are many successful cases of implemented or planned urban regeneration worldwide. The Authors of this paper study such best practices in order to identify current architectural trends in urban regeneration, which contribute to the creation of more green, resilient, sustainable, safe, accessible urban areas. The case studies shown in this article are the winning projects of the C40 Reinventing Cities competition, which is a global competition that was established to accelerate the development of decarbonised and resilient urban regeneration across the globe. This paper contributes to the knowledge through highlighting five architectural trends which are the most common and crucial for facilitating positive urban regeneration processes.
