The study aims to develop a model for integrating principles of territorial identity into the training of architects and urban planners to overcome the impersonality of the urban environment. An analysis of educational programs at 25 Russian universities revealed a systemic deficit in developing competencies for working with regional context. As a solution, a proposed academic discipline with a course project titled "Tourist Cluster 'Myth of Place'" is introduced, aimed at cultivating skills for identifying and interpreting the unique code of a territory through design. Its implementation is intended to enhance tourism appeal, stimulate the local economy, and strengthen the social capital of regions. This could also reduce the outflow of qualified professionals by creating in-demand local professional practice.
