The problems of formation of eco-tourism objects in the wetlands of Southern Iraq, which have a unique cultural landscape and natural biodiversity, are considered. The aim of the study is to develop methodological and design recommendations for the formation of a hotel model of a tourist dwelling in the swamps in the form of villas-bungalows over water, which has many economic and environmental benefits. As a methodological approach to the formation of a bungalow, the principles of "green architecture" are used, which provide the most acceptable forms of visual and compositional interaction of tourism objects with the natural potential of the wetland landscape. For integration into the natural landscape, possible options for placing “bungalow houses” in the water area of wetlands are proposed. Taking into account the foreign experience of resort construction, several models of bungalows were identified according to the architectural and spatial features and the structural and tectonic solution of the floor roof and external walls. The methodical stages of designing the interiors of the "bungalow over the water" are presented. The main natural and modern environmentally friendly materials for construction are systematized; describes the technology of erection and decoration of the walls of wooden bungalow houses. The presented methodological recommendations make it possible to implement the principles of "green architecture" and can be used to form resort areas in the South of Iraq in order to preserve the natural landscape, using adaptive models of housing for tourists, identical to the huts of the "Marsh Arabs".

The article analyzes the landscape complex of the swamps of Southern Iraq, as a proposed location of architectural objects for the construction of an eco-tourist complex. The purpose of the study is to identify the mechanism of formation of compositional links between architecture and landscape on the example of tourist development of wetlands in Southern Iraq. The functional and planning model of the tourist complex is presented. On the basis of morphological analysis, the horizontal and vertical morphological structures of the wetland landscape were identified. The elements of the natural and ecological framework of wetlands are described, which include: - natural "linear structures" (channels, channels, channels); anthropogenic "linear and vector structures" (pedestrian roads, highways, dams, bridges); "nodal structures "or" cores "located at the intersections of linear and vector directions of development of the framework; "buffer zones" and "accumulators" - island and peninsular elements for the placement and accumulation of various functions (recreational, economic, tourist, etc.); "markers" and " dispersed elements "are a kind of" focal points "and" accents " in the planning structure of the landscape (small islands, protrusions of the coastline, backwaters, peaks, capes). The structural components of the tourist complex are proposed in the form of a combination of its three structures: a) "three-dimensional structure" (buildings, blocks, buildings and their combinations); b) "plastic structure" (the degree of dissection; "sculptural" and detailing of individual three-dimensional forms and spaces, taking into account the "ranks", "levels" and "steps" of detailing); c) "decorative structure" (small forms; color and light-tone combinations of surfaces; textures and textures of architectural volumes). Variants of compositional links between the architecture of tourist complexes and the wetland landscape at different levels of formation are developed. The presented methodological tools will make it possible to form functional ecotourism objects that correspond to the principles of sustainable architecture.
