Abstract: This paper presents new housing units completed in post-industrial areas and old military areas, as examples of creating a modern housing environment, while maintaining the identity of the place. Building new urban structures, especially residential environments with regard to the heritage, historical, and spatial conditions in cities, affects the development of the quality of life of whole communities. It is also consistent with the demands of sustainable design. In addition to a new, attractive urban space, housing complexes presented in this paper create individualized social space, which allows interaction between its citizens and the identification of the inhabitants with the place of their residence.
