Innovative Technologies and Prospects for Their Application in the Architecture of Kyrgyzstan

Abstract

The study aimed to assess modern architectural technologies and their potential application in Kyrgyzstan, considering urbanization, environmental sustainability, and regional characteristics. It provided an overview of 21st-century architectural projects using visual materials, including satellite images, diagrams, and statistical data. International examples such as the Eastgate Centre, The Edge, and Al Bahar Towers were analyzed. Satellite imagery from Google Earth showed a significant increase in residential areas from 2005 to 2020. The study highlighted problems like chaotic urbanization, lack of infrastructure, and low energy efficiency, especially in new districts on the outskirts of Bishkek. These issues exacerbate environmental and social challenges, emphasizing the need for sustainable urban planning. The study recommended using local and recycled materials, such as pressed earth, clay blocks, reclaimed brick, and natural stone, along with energy-efficient technologies like solar panels and rainwater harvesting. Examples of successful projects in Bishkek and Osh, including the Olive Hotel and the American University of Central Asia campus, were presented. The study emphasized a systematic approach to introducing innovative technologies in Kyrgyzstan, combining sustainability, functionality, and energy efficiency. Its practical value lies in aiding architects, urban planners, and government agencies in modernizing the construction sector.
