Abstract

Rethinking contemporary construction goes beyond conventional building techniques and is conditioned by the context of technological progress.The aim of this paper is to analyze the transformation of the city, the impact of contemporary design solutions, and the assessment of their effectiveness after implementation in modern projects. Transformations experienced by cities in underdeveloped countries indicate a loss of the human character, which was the fundamental idea of architects of the modernist movement.Such change can be interpreted in various ways, but in the context of cities, it can be reduced to certain aspects such as comfort, infrastructural equipment, aesthetics, content, and other elements that must meet contemporary needs. Their interconnection is crucial for the creation of high-quality physical spaces. This paper calls for further research and re-examination of construction techniques with the aim of reducing negative environmental impacts.
