Abstract
This paper presents the findings of urban development studies conducted in Samarkand (Republic of Uzbekistan), using the Sattepo residential area as a case study. The contribution of Samarkand’s precast concrete factories, which constructed the microdistrict with 5- and 9-story lightweight expanded clay concrete panel residential buildings from enlarged wall panels of popular standardized series 1-464, 148, and 1-474, was examined. The artistic mosaic decoration of these buildings imparts a unique national character to these standardized Soviet-era housing developments and has a historical cultural value, continuing to impress residents and visitors to Uzbekistan. Such research is needed to find a balance between the preservation of authentic cultural values and the possibility of architectural modifications in Samarkand for its continued development.
