Summary: - the research objective is an analysis of selected
architectural designs that have been executed as apartment buildings, as a
contribution to the research of architectural elements and typology of
apartment buildings in the reconstruction and development of a city - on
the example of Zagreb - selected buildings will be studied and systematized
according to groups and typological characteristics - selected buildings
will be studied by means of the normative method, analysis and synthesis
Keywords: Housing, Zagreb, current architecture, the new moderns (arch.).
Research goals: Research into architectural elements and forms in
the development of a city, based on actual examples and on our own
experiences from Zagreb, should contribute to the advancement of knowledge
and methods of work concerning architectural design. The program objective
is to study and document a sufficient number of our own designs of various
apartment buildings that have actually been executed, analyze them and
systematize them according to their typological characteristics. In this
manner, both creative and rational factors of housing architecture and
environment will be defined. Experiences with the application of normative
sizes and all sets of standards will be subjected to criticism, which in
turn will help improve the residential environment. Other information about the project.
