The study aimed to substantiate architectural and planning solutions that facilitate the integration of training and production centres for folk arts and crafts into the modern urban environment of Kazakhstan. The study uses methods of urban planning concept, functional zoning, environmental sustainability and architectural solution analysis to develop design recommendations. The study substantiated urban planning approaches to the location and design of training and production centres of folk-art crafts in Kazakhstan. The study established that the best places for their creation are regions with a developed cultural and historical heritage and the presence of sustainable craft traditions. The author analysed the functional structure of craft centres, which demonstrated that their effectiveness depends on a clear zoning of the territory. It is recommended to distinguish the following zones: educational (workshops, lecture halls), industrial (workshops, laboratories), exhibition (museums, galleries, shops) and public (recreation and cultural events). The results of the study confirmed that the use of local natural materials (stone, wood, clay) in construction not only meets the requirements of environmental sustainability but also contributes to the preservation of the traditional appearance of architecture. The study determined that the integration of traditional Kazakh architectural elements into modern projects contributes to tourist and cultural attractiveness. As a practical conclusion, recommendations for the design of centres were developed, including the choice of locations, structural zoning and consideration of architectural features. An example of the successful application of the proposed solutions was the project of a centre in Turkestan, which demonstrated a significant contribution to the preservation of cultural heritage and the development of the local economy. Thus, the results of the study highlighted the importance of an integrated approach to the creation of training and production centres, ensuring their sustainable development and integration into the modern urban environment.
