AB - 
	The article illustrates six implemented designs of architectural and urban composition which were either designed by the author individually or in a team, against a backdrop of an analysis of the term “urban and architectural composition”. The very term and the creative implementation of architectural and urban composition as a synthesis of shaping space in a creative manner is one of the more important scientific, practical and didactic achievements of the Kraków school of urban design, based at the Faculty of Architecture of the Kraków University of Technology. The author of this essay, the opinions that it contains, as well as of the design concepts that it is based upon identifies himself as a member of this school. The examples that are listed in the article carefully illustrate the importance of the fact that the composition of buildings should be closely tied to and coordinated with the composition of the surrounding urban context and lead to a conscious improvement in the aesthetics of the city.
