The article examines the formation of nature-integrated architecture as a manifestation of the modern stage of development of the theory of architectural space. Scientific approaches to form formation in architecture are analyzed and it is determined how the integration of natural components into architectural objects transforms the spatial organization and interaction of the object with the environment. Key methods of natureintegrated form formation are highlighted, in particular biomorphic modeling, topological plasticity, parametric methods, biophilic design. The dependence between form, function, spatial structure and conceptual foundations of the theory of architectural space are considered. It is determined that nature integration contributes to the formation of new types of architectural expressiveness and strengthens the connection between man, architectural object and environment.
Modern scientific approaches to form-making are based on a multi-level understanding of architectural space as a living, changing and interacting system. The latest research is dominated by the ideas of openness, adaptability, dynamism of space, as well as the importance of the relationship between man, the environment and architectural form.
Based on modern theoretical concepts of architectural space, key methods that determine the architectural form of natureintegrated architecture were identified: biophilic design, morphogenesis, adaptive form-making, incorporation of natural relief, integration of natural cycles, eco-archetype. These methods not only create aesthetically attractive forms, but also provide ecological efficiency and psychological comfort.
Based on this analysis, it was determined that the spatial planning organization of natureintegrated architecture is inextricably linked to theoretical concepts of architectural space. The following theories are considered: space as a dynamic system, space as an element of experience, and space as a communication system.
The dependence between space, form and architectural theory is manifested in the fact that the form of an architectural object arises as a result of spatial interaction with the natural context. Space becomes not only a background, but an active factor in design, affecting the function, plasticity and internal logic of the organization of the architectural structure.
