The article examines the architectural and spatial environment of cities in Belgium, numerous examples of architectural solutions of buildings, both architectural monuments and future projects that have not yet been embodied. From the point of view of considering the foreshortenings of the city of Belgium proposed in the article, they can be considered as: a historically developed system of social and functional settlement of citizens, modern and future environment, an object of aesthetic perception. Architecture bears a projection of the integrity of the human personality and social interaction between people, as well as the preservation of an integral architectural environment as a whole. The modern architecture of Belgium – NewArt Style – is a set of basic forms and features characteristic of buildings of a certain time and a certain people, manifested in the features of a functional, constructive and artistic order. Each era has created its own style. The historically developed architectural and spatial environment of the cities of Belgium is a valuable object of research, both from a historical point of view and from an architectural point of view. It can be said that every European city has a rich history, reflecting in its characteristic compositional and landscape features, which makes it possible to identify the main problems of preserving the historical part of the city, which occupies most of the territory in the overall city planning and has a significant impact on its modern spatial composition and architecture in the future. This allows modern European architects to identify strategies for the development of a small historical city without violating its architectural and spatial integrity and artistic qualities, as well as to preserve a harmonious and comfortable urban environment.

Pedestrian is part of urban elements that have a significant role in forming a city. In the pedestrian, social interactions will be created which further strengthen relations between elements in the city. Cities in Europe are the best examples of city pedestrian planning. There walking is more comfortable and enjoyable, with the city being created by the streetscape and the humanist city order. Whereas in cities in developing countries like Jakarta, the city planning has not accommodated pedestrians at all.               The design of the city of Jakarta which is not humanist seems to urge pedestrians and force everyone to ride a car. The pedestrian paths provided are always side by side with the road and the volume is insufficient for those who pass it.               It can be concluded that the existing pedestrian conditions are unsafe and very uncomfortable. Examples of such cases can be seen along Jalan Sudirman and M.H. Thamrin which has always been the icon of the Jakarta office area. Where along these linear and continuous paths, pedestrians are forced to walk unprotected and face the pollution produced by vehicles. The lack of good pedestrian planning in this area has resulted in pedestrians preferring to use vehicles. Finally, each person is increasingly individualistic because there is no social interaction and the realization of a city that is not humanist too.

The terminology and concept of city image is very much related to good city planning and reflects strong image which, defined by Kelvin Andrew Lynch, a town-planner. He elaborates such terminology with regarding to people perception on urban space in term of city legibility and image-ability. Elizur who has classified city image as “rich” and “poor” in his study reminds of prototype and stereotype city place respectively. City image generally refers to the characteristic of a true urban image such as skylines, landmarks and panoramas. Architects, urban designers and town-planners play a crucial role in carrying out the task of shaping the city image. However, when discussion on city image which regards to economics point of view, city image could be interpreted as active use and passive use in accordance to a paper presented by some scholars. Active use means usage of the old buildings restoration and preservation which generates incomes to cover their building’s maintenance and expenses. Examples such as cafés, boutique hotels, art galleries. Conversely, passive use does not generate substantial income but contribute to and beneficial of the community. Examples such as community library, museums and other social activity buildings. Both active and passive use are portraying adaptive re-use of the old buildings. This paper unfolds the common ground which integrates adaptive re-use of pre-war shophouse buildings as architecture concept in Kuala Lumpur Chinatown (KLC) and contributing the city image under the term of conservation. The study is conducted with photographic records, on site study, observation (visual survey technique) and analysis.

The article investigates the species streets and squares of Lviv, highlights the principles of their location and establishes their significance for the perception of the urban environment. Particular attention is paid to the formation of streets during the reconstruction. Emphasis is placed on the importance of viewing platforms for the formation of the city's silhouette and the perception of its image. Viewpoints are an integral part of the spatial composition of the city. With their professional location, the city acquires greater aesthetic perfection. The environment becomes more comfortable and attractive from an aesthetic point of view. Accordingly, the architectural value of the space grows, the city acquires compositional expressiveness, a unique image is created. At the beginning of the study, the viewpoints of the city were divided into two main groups: viewing streets and viewing platforms. Each of these groups is important for the formation of the overall composition of the city. Several viewing streets were explored and the focus was on their visual connections. Species sites in Lviv were analyzed in the following locations: Vysokyi Zamok mountain; the tower of the church of St. Olga-Elizabeth; Town Hall Tower; ferris wheel in B. Khmelnytsky Park. Their significance for the perception of the image of the city is determined. Lviv has a unique history and architecture. The location on a hilly terrain adds to the city's attractiveness and charm. For centuries, our architects have made sure that the city is perceived as a holistic compositional system with its dominants and visual connections. Now Lviv is being renewed and developing at a very fast pace as a European city. Therefore, it is very important that the new building does not distort what was created by many generations of architects, but only adds attractiveness and individuality. View points are important for the formation of the attractiveness of the image of the city, so special attention should be paid to the preservation of existing view streets and areas and the organization of new ones. During the formation of species points, the following features should be taken into account: 1) When forming new elements of the city it is necessary to take into account the location of existing viewing streets and areas. It is very important that the new objects do not obscure the existing visual connections that have been formed over the centuries and play the most important role in the perception of the image of the city. 2) When building the areas under inspection - to coordinate the form with the environment. So that the high-rise buildings of the new areas do not distort the view of the city from the historic environment. 3) When placing new observation decks, take into account the orientation relative to the sides of the world, so that the observer can inspect the color picture, not just the silhouette. The spatial organization of viewpoints will not only improve the aesthetic qualities of the city, highlight individual features, improve the perception of the image as a whole, but can also be used to attract tourists.
