Abstract
Description
Along with other colonial territories of Russia, from the first years of Soviet power, Turkestan also fell under the rule of the communist system. Urban planning issues required a new approach. During this period, due to the attractiveness of the “communist” ideology of the new system, most of the talented architects who worked under the tsarist government perceived it with high spirits. Since the 1920s, new projects of typical buildings for Tashkent have been developed. Due to the synchronism of architectural processes and urban planning in the cities of Uzbekistan, we considered it necessary to study the approach to the article in this context. The city of Samarkand was chosen as the first capital of the Turkestan Autonomous Republic, in 1930 the capital of the republic was transferred from Samarkand to Tashkent. During the period of large-scale industrialization of the country - the construction of new industrial cities and the reconstruction of existing ones, the design of housing in conjunction with public buildings acquired particular importance in the architecture of this period.
