- Abstract
The Japanese garden, which is one of the symbols of the country, was a necessary attribute of traditional Japanese buildings (from a residential building to a temple complex). At World exhibitions, in the improvement of cities of the country, in modern architecture, Japan is looking for new opportunities for harmonious coexistence with natural environment. In twentieth century, feeling influence of the tendency to compact space, the garden, continuing to remain an important element of Japanese culture, is modified, acquiring new types and forms. High density of Japanese cities resulted in unusual architectural and landscape structures: the emergence of vertical, multilayered gardens, and roof gardens. Contemporary garden begins to play rather, a role, an image of the traditional idea of harmony with nature.
