The formation of a high-quality and comfortable urban environment is largely linked to the rational use of territories, for which it is necessary to carry out renovations of outdated urban areas, which are becoming not only spatial, urban planning, and architectural, but also an important economic tool for sustainable socio-economic and urban development. This article analyzes renovation as a process of transforming the urban environment aimed at improving the quality of life, the well-being of the population, social inclusion, and cultural continuity. The problems of worn-out housing stock, inefficient use of urban areas, and growing demands for quality of life necessitate a reassessment of urban environment management mechanisms. The article examines approaches to defining the category of "renovation," examines international approaches to renovation, and formulates proposals for their implementation in Uzbekistan.

This article examines contemporary trends in the design of multifunctional residential complexes, reflecting changes in urban environment requirements and social needs. The historical stages of the evolution of multifunctional residential complexes are analyzed, from ancient civilizations to modern concepts of sustainable development. Special attention is given to key aspects such as flexibility and adaptability of spaces, environmental sustainability, integration of high technologies, as well as social and community integration. The article also highlights additional trends such as polycentricity, autonomy, regulation of boundaries, intensification of courtyard spaces, and the concept of openness and transparency. It is concluded that modern multifunctional residential complexes aim to create a sustainable, comfortable urban environment capable of adapting to changes and meeting the needs of the population.

The article examines the scientific and practical aspects of ensuring sanitary and environmental conditions for residents through the optimization of insolation within a microdistrict. It is shown that insolation is one of the key factors in shaping a healthy and comfortable urban environment, directly influencing building energy efficiency, ecological balance, and architectural and urban planning solutions. Calculation methods are proposed based on building geometry, regional climatic features, and the use of mathematical modeling. The interrelations of sanitary, ecological, and demographic conditions in the optimization of microdistrict infrastructure are demonstrated. Practical examples from the city of Tashkent and international experience are analyzed. Recommendations have been developed for integrating insolation requirements into regional urban development programs.
