The thesis addresses the issue of accessibility of urban green spaces in densely built-up residential areas, where the lack of high-quality and easily accessible greenery significantly affects residents’ quality of life. The theoretical part provides a basic overview of the role of green spaces in the urban environment from ecological, psychological, social, and morphological perspectives. Particular emphasis is placed on the importance of their spatial, temporal, social, and functional accessibility. Guidelines and standards for the distribution of green spaces are also presented, including national guidelines, recommendations of the World Health Organization, and the 3–30–300 rule.
The third part focuses on Ljubljana’s green system, particularly the concept of green wedges, as well as on an analysis of the current state and spatial distribution of green spaces. The Šiška District is selected as a case study due to its dense development and diverse residential neighbourhoods. Based on an analysis of existing green spaces and their temporal accessibility from residential areas, key spatial deficiencies in the urban green network are identified.
Based on the findings, a strategy for improving the spatial and temporal accessibility of green spaces at the district level is subsequently developed. The final part of the thesis presents a design proposal for establishing local green park areas in the area of the LPP bus depot, serving as a concrete example of applying the proposed strategy in practice and contributing to the development of a more balanced and accessible green structure within the urban environment.
