Abstract

The historical time of our days is a turning point both in the destinies of the new way of life of global humanity and in architecture. Urbanization is gaining momentum. People inhabit multi-storey residential complexes. Having turned into a city apartment, home hardly returns to nature. The question arises as to how to avoid gaudy eclecticism and naive utopia when abandoning the standards of standard construction. Today, it has not been possible to theoretically substantiate the connection between architectural style and lifestyle, and without this connection, the concept of “style” loses its meaning. Today, the “housing issue” is no longer a question of a roof over your head, but of the meaning and new life of the modern concept of “home”.
