Abstract
Today, citizens and tourists prefer a more natural landscape for their vacation and recreation. Be they forest areas, forest parks, parks and other areas with a certain more or less organized plant cover. Due to the consequences of non-maintenance, the total aesthetic and functional value of such areas has been reduced. The aim of this paper is to listr the current state of the dendroflora and to provide a proposal for the arrangement of the entire area with a proposal as a supplement to the existing dendroflora of the St. Marin park that represents a significant, partly anthropogenic natural landscape located in the eastern part of the municipality of Lopar on the island of Rab and occupies an area of 4.75 ha. This is an area that was reforested a century ago and today is partly used as an urban forest and park. Forest horticultural maintenance and care are not carried out, which led to the natural succession of forest vegetation. The whole area represents a great spatial and natural potential to be arranged and designed with certain contents. On the basis of the biological-ecological and spatial analysis and the possible functional economic development of this space, an earlier conceptual solution of the entire space was analyzed, which was defined in three functional but connected zones: hotel, plateau (square) and park. The new arrangement of the entire area and the park through the given conceptual solution is imbued with the traditional Mediterranean spirit with the use of local stylistic features (plant materials and garden-building elements). It also coincides with the purpose according to spatial planning solutions. The arrangement of this area creates a space of tourist and sociological importance.
