In the conditions of the complex climatic context of Almaty, characterized by sudden temperature fluctuations, significant duration of solar exposure and frequent strong winds, the design of courtyard spaces is becoming particularly relevant. This work is devoted to the analysis of architectural solutions used to create a comfortable environment in courtyards in the conditions of this region. The study covers the main approaches to the organization of spaces, including the use of landscape design, the use of natural materials, the integration of landscaping elements and reservoirs, as well as the introduction of modern technologies to regulate the microclimate. Special attention is paid to the study of the interaction of architectural forms with natural climatic factors such as solar radiation, wind load and precipitation.
The results of the study show that the successful design of courtyard spaces in Almaty requires a combination of traditional architectural practices adapted to local conditions with innovative solutions focused on sustainable development. This approach contributes not only to improving the quality of the urban environment, but also to creating harmonious spaces that support social interactions and enhance the overall well-being of residents.
