TI - Recreation Within Small Residential Complexes
AB - 
	The paper discusses the problems tied to the shaping of urban recreational spaces of small residential complexes. Recreation needs to be acknowledged as belonging to a set of important functions of human settlements, apart from that of providing housing, as it considerably influences the maintaining of the optimal physical and mental condition of man, as well as his health.
	The paper is a presentation of thirteen award winning architectural and urban designs that were developed by students within the academic year 2015/2016 at the Chair of the Housing Environment of the Faculty of Architecture at the Cracow University of Technology. In the opinion of the author, they illustrate the diversity of pursuits and experiments in the shaping of a healthy housing environment in terms of function and space. One quality of these original creations and visions is the pursuit of achieving the mutual interconnectedness of the functional and spatial relationships of apartments, homes and housing complexes with the natural environment that creates optimal conditions for recreation.
