The goal of this paper is a confrontation of a study-based and idealistic design approach with the strategy of pragmatic / professional designing for a specific investor. It has the form of a comparative narration of a diploma dissertation with the current design-related activities, soon to be investment activities, referring to the Modlin Fortress. This allows to juxtapose hierarchies of values adopted in both cases and verify the legitimacy of premises underlying the decisions taken in the planning and designing process, and in the context of works of a design team, of mutual proportions in the contribution of pe ople influencing the design, and the order of performance of individual investment tasks.
