Actual Environment Formation. Towards an Integrated Architectural-Artistic Environment

Abstract

The author of the article addresses the problems of developing creativity in the architectural environment in the context of restoring full-fledged artistic and imaginative communication with the user. The current priorities of the imaginative filling of the spaces of vital activity on the way to a new theory of artistic environment formation are determined. The author's concept of a new transformational "artistic element" of the architectural environment is put forward, the metaphorical prototype of which is the famous idea of K. Malevich. The proposed environmental codes are classified based on the specifics of their architectural manifestations: "artistic motif", "artistic archive", "artistic footprint", "artistic generator", "artistic conductor", "artistic medium", "artistic activator", "artistic hybrid". The integration of activating environmental elements and user scenarios can form the basis of a viable model of the modern urban environment of domestic cities. The article is accompanied by author's photographs.
