PROBLEMS Wind farms in the landscape of Lower Silesian villages Farmy wiatrowe w krajobrazie wsi dolnośląskich Tomasz Malczyk SUMMARYWind farms are the most commonly used sources of renewable energy. They are a symbol of modern innovation with concern for the environment. However, they require exceptionally well-judged locations to operate efficiently and effectively. Additionally, due to the size of the turbines and the whole wind farm, they dominate the landscape feature as no other natural feature in an open area. This article discusses problems from the impact of two wind farms on the surrounding rural landscape, with particular focus on the changes brought to the environment and the reach of the impact. A new road in the landscape Nowa droga w krajobrazie Urszula Forczek-Brataniec SUMMARYA road investment requires a strip of land dozens of metres wide, ranging from a distance of several dozen to several hundred kilometres and subject to complex planning and social challenges. Highly complex circumstances bring about conflicts and difficult situations which need to be resolved. This process takes place within the landscape and has a very strong impact on it. It can change an area’s structure and function, make new borders and create new transit space in the shape of a road corridor. A new road becomes a new element of the landscape and at the same time, creates a new opportunity for it to be displayed. While major transformations of an area are designed, landscape architects are consulted only if a road is to pass through a protected area. The violation of an existing protected zone is the only thing that may prompt a comprehensive study of the impact of a road on the landscape, requiring the participation of a landscape architect in design decisions. Otherwise, investment plans will usually forego the inclusion of an assessment on the impact the new road would have on the shape and quality of an area of terrain. Based on the studies of the impact of road investments on the landscape, an assessment of design options are presented together with an approach for the introduction of landscape guidelines for development projects within the context of existing legislation. The studies and the analyses focus on road investments located in areas adjacent to UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The studies have become the basis for issuing by the National Centre for Research and Documentation of Historical Monuments. MATERIALS Integrating Architecture with the Surrounding Landscape by Using Local Raw Materials Integracja architektury z otaczającym krajobrazem poprzez użycie lokalnych materiałów Anna Podolska SUMMARYArchitectural styles can develop in one of two ways: by building in harmony with the landscape or creating a conscious contrast to it. This article aims to show how local raw materials can shape the visual harmony between the landscape and the elements introduced by man. The examples presented from Poland and another part of the world show the traditions of local color, based on the available local materials and color which became associated with the cultural traditions of the region. They demonstrate how consistent forming of building developments, compatible with the presence of local colouring, helped many localities hold on to beauty and individuality to this day. The impact of flora on the value of the urban riverside landscape in wrocław Wpływ roślinności na wartość nadrzecznego krajobrazu miejskiego Wrocławia Iwona Orzechowska-Szajda SUMMARYThe aim of this thesis is to position flora, a parameter expressed as the degree of coverage or the number of species of vegetation used in many studies on landscape evaluation, in the hierarchy of factors necessary for estimating the value of an urban landscape. Research based on a statistical method, rough set theory, was conducted in an attempt to answer the following questions: is it possible to estimate landscape value on the basis of one parameter only; to what extent does this parameter influence the value of urban landscape; is flora, defined as the number of species, more important to the process of landscape evaluation than the space it occupies. PRESENTATIONS The art of landscape and art within the landscape as seen by artistic transformations at the turn of the 21st century. The results of a research project Sztuka krajobrazu i sztuka w krajobrazie na tle przemian w sztuce przełomu XX i XXI wieku. Wynik projektu badawczego Jan Rylke SUMMARYThe turn of the 21st century witnessed a change in the approach towards garden design. The process of design work became comprehensive and creative. Research underwent a change to a more phenomenological and anthropocentric direction. Specific values have become more appreciated than abstract ones. Also, nature is now viewed differently: like a subject, not like an object. These changes should exert an influence on Polish landscape architecture. Carl Theodor Sorensen's Klokkergarden - an example of Danish modernism Klokkergarden Carla Theodora Sorensena - przyklad duńskiego modernizmu Paulina Dudzik SUMMARYKlokkergården, located in the northern part of Copenhagen, was designed by Danish landscape architect Carl Theodor Sørensen in 1938–1939. It is a small area of greenery surrounded by multi-family blocks of flats. It is considered to be an example of modernism in the art of spatial planning, and in addition to having an interesting layout, contains many practical and functional solutions to a space that is difficult to work with. This paper contains a biography of the designer, the history of the Klokkergården project, along with the basic design principles and analyses and a description of the site’s present condition. Revitalisation of the palace and park complex in Ołdrzychowice Kłodzkie (the Lower Palace) Koncepcja rewaloryzacji zespołu pałacowo-parkowego w Ołdrzychowicach Kłodzkich (pałac dolny) Anna Zaręba SUMMARYThe purpose of the study is to present the results of analyses conducted as part of the research project “Palace and landscape setting revitalisation of the Biała Lądecka River valley in the section from Żelazna do Radochów (No. 4 T07F 001 27)”. The article presents the plans for restoring the palace and park complex in Ołdrzychowice Kłodzkie.

Harmony and disharmony in the lublin district landscape and awareness within the local community Harmonia i dysharmonia krajobrazu Lubelszczyzny w kontekście świadomości społeczności lokalnych Agnieszka Kępkowicz SUMMARYThe landscape is the result of the civic management of space. This means that the immediate users, the inhabitants of cities, towns and villages, have a significant impact on its formation. Harmonious or disharmonious modifications depend on their good will, an awareness of potential threats, and respect for tradition and legislative orders. The article poses a question about the types of actions which have influenced the currently developing landscape in the Lublin district, as well as about causes and results. It is also a reflection on the awareness of local communities of the common good, that being the landscape. A pilot research was conducted to measure community awareness of the landscape and the respondents were students of the Spatial Management programme at the University of Life Sciences in Lublin, and who were at the same time residents of the districts in the study and potential leaders of local communities.
