Purpose. Optimization of functional, architectural-melting, compositional solutions for buildings and structures of art institutions, search and development of new types of buildings.
Scope. Architectural planning.
Advantages. Development of theoretical models of architectural-planning organization of art centers allows to take into account the needs for functional content of art center buildings, social, cultural, architectural and construction features of a specific area.
Description. A comprehensive theoretical model of architectural-planning organization of art centers has been developed, combining the specifics of functional-planning solutions, methods of organizing the architectural environment and means of forming the image of the art center building. Four architectural-typological models of art centers have been developed for use in architectural design practice: – Type I “Minimal”, Type II “Standard”, Type III “Extended”, Type IV “Art Cluster” and their functional-planning models. Based on the analysis of functional and planning relationships, a composition of premises for each type is proposed, and the placement of each type of art center in the corresponding populated areas is recommended.
