Used at the close of the first quarter of the 20th century, the system of erecting buildings from prefabricated elements (so-called “textile block system”) was one of the most distinct and original systems in its idea of architectonic technology based on the rules of standardization and modularity. Particular attention should be paid to the way in which the architect treated the texture of the concrete, making it a very important element of aesthetic expression of a building form. This paper tries to bring us closer to F.L. Wright’s pioneering contribution in the aesthetic development and dissemination of prefabricated technologies of concrete for the needs of housing architecture.

Precast concrete constructions were used by many countries during the second half 20-th century to provide low-income housing for the growing urban population. However nowadays urban residential buildings became one of the major problems cities have to address; with their day to day issues like anti-social behavior and crime. This project aims to show how different countries attempted to rehabilitate those places. I will provide an evidence showing that to rehabilitate those housing estates we need one necessary factor and that is a change in mentality inhabitants living in block estates.

Attractive city center frequently constitutes its showcase. It is a peculiar place assembling impressive architectural objects with a significant historical importance. That is why this is a place which everyone want to see (tourists and occupants). Sometimes, aesthetic and functional values of the central urban space are connected with the character of the city itself. The size and main functions are different in a further regions. For instance, main promenade in Iwonicz Zdrój health resort looks completely different than the market square in Głogów Małopolski (one of the biggest marketplaces in Poland). Distinguishing features of the marketplaces depend on the regions in which they occur, as well as the size of the city they are situated in. This paper presents characteristic of the selected city centers located in the podkarpackie voivodeship. The main problems faced by the most prestigious urban spaces have been presented, as well as modern requirements of the citizens residing in city centers selected for the analysis.

Krakow, as many other developing metropolitan areas, undergoes dynamic suburban processes. Underinvested areas located in direct range of influence of large scale urban centers are becoming a scene of spontaneous city-creating processes. The paper presents results of analyses of new building complexes in the Krakow suburbia. Studies have proved weak spatial relation between particular investments, which may bear witness to an increasing role of network type relation in creating contemporary urban structures. Network type urban relations are not conducive to large-scale social structures in the way public spaces of streets and squares used to be in the traditional urban design. The “new order”, that is being shaped in suburban areas, seems to question some traditional social rules. Therefore the question of relation between these two: social and spatial dimensions of a city became up-to-date. Are new urban structures going to shape a new society, or maybe on the contrary – suburban neoplasm is a result of a contemporary civilization disease?

Human scale as a technical term does not have an axiomatic and unequivocal definition; it is used intuitively, predominantly to describe buildings which do not have it. As a feature, human scale has a positive connotation; it is usually associated with friendly design and it indicates its right proportions. This article presents a short overview of various definitions of human scale and an outline of development of the concept. Furthermore, the article presents some practical recommendations and advice which could prove useful in architectural design and describing architecture. The focal point of this paper is the psychological aspect of human scale i.e. the influence of the size of buildings and its parts on the human psyche in the setting of residential settlements.

The idea of modern city parks was born in the USA, wherefrom was transferred to Europe and towards other continents. It was represented by the pioneer of landscape architecture F.L. Olmsted, author of the Central Park in Manhattan (in 1857, area 350 ha). After 156 years, Manhattan still sustains a position of the leading model for good creating contemporary city parks. The main motivation of it, is a quality of a city life. At first “green lung” of them, also their surfaces biologically active, realized an idea of hygienic and salubrious industrial city, then reducing results of pollution emitted by fuel both used for heating and for vehicles. Now, the leading idea is amelioration of stressful existence in super modern metropolis; this encourages towards plural and attractive creation of parks.
