 abstract={The urban structure of cities plays a crucial role in recording the ideas of planning for centres and in correctly determining the directions of their development. It reveals historical events and ongoing civilizational processes that leave a lasting mark on the urban landscape. The article will discuss the key elements forming the urban structure of Kołobrzeg, in which functionally and spatially distinct areas have created a balanced organism. The process of shaping the urban fabric inscribed in the surrounding landscape is shown in a cross-sectional manner. It combines methods of morphology, iconography, and urban analysis, revealing a sustainable structure resulting from historical spatial and functional development. This allowed identifying the relationships between the durability and flexibility of the urban fabric, integrating new socio- economic functions in successive stages. Our interdisciplinary approach to the urban development of Kołobrzeg also takes into account contemporary threats related to landscape changes caused by excessive growth and the monocentricity of cities. Our analysis emphasizes that the urban structure of Kołobrzeg, characterized by a networked nature, forms the basis for spatial-functional balance. As a result, the example of Kołobrzeg demonstrates that an urban structure based on network principles serves as a foundation for complementary functional-social equilibrium, which can counteract contemporary threats to the urban landscape and support the process of sustainable development.},
