This thesis is meant to explore strategies and principles that would guide urban development into environmentally sustainable places. The aim of the work is to create a city by applying the principles of green infrastructure, urban agriculture and green cities. Through deeper analysis of the city a conclusion is reached that it is necessary to increase the percentage of green spaces in the city center, to take advantage of the existing elements of green infrastructure and to increase the number of hiking and biking trails that will connect center of the city and the periphery. With the examples of green cities presented in the case study, one can see how architects around the world have approached this problem. By analyzing the current state of the city, we can see the flaws and positive things that should be taken advantage of. Guided by analyzes and research, we come up with a strategy that will change the identity of the city and positively affect the quality of life in Novi Pazar.
