The article discusses the problem of renovation of facilities of port complexes (PCs). The purpose of the study is to identify possible architectural and spatial models of renovation. The method of morphological analysis is used. The port complex is being "decomposed" into its main structural elements, and their classification is given.: 1) elements of the water area; 2) functional and spatial elements; 3) components of the communication framework; 4) elements of visual communication. The obtained models create a methodological basis for the architectural and spatial renovation of the facilities of the port complex.

The article analyzes the Russian experience of renovation of port facilities. The purpose of the study is to identify best practices and directions for the development of PC facilities during their transformation. The experience of the cities of St. Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Tyumen and Kazan is being studied. The best Russian practices in the following aspects of PC renovation are summarized: a) architectural and artistic, b) urban planning; c) functional and spatial. The resulting number of promising approaches and trends creates a methodological basis for the integration of these facilities into the structure of the city.

This article is devoted to the study of the European experience of designing sustainable architecture in the process of renovation of former port-industrial complexes. The purpose of the study is to identify current trends and approaches to the design of sustainable architecture, taking into account the specifics of the place. The analysis of the experience of Denmark, Sweden and Germany in the transformation of former port-industrial complexes in the context of sustainable architecture is carried out according to a number of criteria: urban planning solution, spatial and architectural planning solution, stylization of the image of new buildings, criteria for energy efficiency and environmental friendliness; economic and social sustainability. The emphasis is placed on the study of the formation of the architectural appearance of buildings. The importance of the interaction of architecture with the environment and context when creating a marine facade is emphasized. The identified design approaches can be used in research, design and educational activities.
