The article reveals the landscape diversity of the historical garden and park landscape – the National Dendrological Park "Sofiyivka" of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine in the city of Uman, Cherkasy region, founded in 1796-1800. In the classification of landscape gardening landscapes, developed by the Ukrainian landscape architect, doctor of biological sciences Rubtsov L.I., 6 types of landscapes are distinguished. The landscape of the NDP "Sofiyivka", as an object of landscape gardening art, belongs to the group of anthropogenic landscapes and is classified as a cultural, recreational, slightly modified landscape (historical core of the park) and modified landscape (Grekova and Lesnaya beams). On the territory of the arboretum, all types of landscape gardening landscapes are presented: forest, park, meadow, garden, regular, alpine landscapes. Most of the historical core of the park is occupied by the park landscape; the forest landscape has been preserved closer to the boundaries of the arboretum. The meadow landscape exists both at the bottom of the beams and in elevated places, such as on the Fungus lawn. The garden type of landscape is presented in the English Park, created in 1890 91 by Pashkevich V.V. and in a series of new monocultural gardens (of lilacs, magnolias, maples, chrysanthemums, dahlias, daylilies, hosts, etc.). The Kamyanka River is an alpine (or mountainous) type of garden and park landscape due to natural granite outcrops and shifted boulders. Examples of the regular landscape are the amphitheater, alleys, greenery protection strips, as well as the regularly planned area of the new entrance to the arboretum from the street Kyivskaya with a fountain and a rosary. These garden and park landscapes of the arboretum "Sofiyivka" are the most valuable natural ecosystem formations within the arboretum, which must be preserved and maintained accordance with the strategic principles of ecological unity and reproduction of natural resources.

The studying of natural water landscapes has a lot of ways and methods. Especially, it became important nowadays when the newest technologies and ideas stay on the position of protection and renovation of nature environment. The main definition of techno-creation and understanding of its place today were given in the first part of the paper. The second part shows the meaning of Water from Techno-Creative point of view as we look towards the main constructive tendencies. Through analysing the modern European buildings and objects of landscape architecture the new approaches to usage of "water" in contemporary architecture have emerged. This analysis of modelling space with three states of water (solid, liquid and vapour) constitutes the cornerstone of the research. The main water's shapes and forms are studied.The third part is dedicated to the further parallel development processes that could appear in modern architectural and landscape practice, which is strongly connected with water usage. In this field the trends of usage of water as the habitat environment may be investigated. Another approach can appear as a result of determination for the role and throughout discussing the challenges of landscape water objects in modern architectural practice.
