Emerging trends in architecture and urban planning in the last decades concern the use of water as an important element creating both the image of the city, the environment and the landscape. The subject of the research is the analysis of ways of shaping contemporary public spaces on the example of water in the city and the nearest surroundings. The aim of the article is to show its impact on shaping urban development, natural and cultural environment. The subject of the publication is a systematically done research concerning architecture, architectural and landscape space of the area located above the Warta River flowing through Częstochowa as well as fountains and water reservoirs newly built in the city. The article discusses innovative solutions aimed at connecting the river and water objects of small architecture with innovative solutions of architectural designs of urban buildings created for people and friendly to the environment in which they reside.
