Zaera-Polo’s architectural compass as a research tool for modern concepts of architectural environment design
Abstract
The article examines the trends in modern architecture, outlined in the studies of architectural critic Alejandro Zaera-Polo and his team. The tool they’ve created was named “Interactive Map of Modern Architecture”. Charles Jencks’s ‘Evolutionary Tree’ (diagram of 20th century architecture) had a significant influence on this tool. The functionality of Zaera-Polo’s map has been examined for five years by the author of this article while tutoring future architects at the Department of Architectural Environment Design at Lviv Polytechnic National University. These examinations allowed us to formulate a number of proposals to improve both – the structure of this map and the methodology of its creation
Keywords
