Abstract

The aim of this study is to review the core of preservation and further development of the green pattern facilities in the town, within the domain of urban development trends in Trebinje. Awareness of the need to preserve nature, support its native values and its appropriate treatment in the urban context and beyond becomes an imperative for all human activities in urban space. The ecological function of horticultural facilitiesin modern life conditions in Trebinje sets the questions of presence, future use and preservation of these spatial components of the urban pattern to the fore in order to improve the environment and restore the town's identity. This implies achieving a more humane urban environment in Trebinje, enriching urban scenery and experiences, better reintegration of the green structure facilities as well as connecting the urban tissue with surrounding natural landscape and significant contribution to improving environmental indicators. In this study, we observe the sustainable context of Trebinje as a permanent category because its environmental values, spirit of the town and its landmarks are all contained in its memory. Satisfactory presence, formation of and sustainable greenery development can be provided only by interpenetration of natural, created and common influential factors of the environment, based upon planning oriented settings in all phases of implementation.
