People are social beings who need each other. People as social beings cannot live alone and need other living beings to survive. The city is characterized as a place where people live and work and are the center of the economy. Heterogeneous cities and majority of non-agrarian communities cause the community to be individualist. People begin to forget about the true socialization meaning and start building walls with each other. This research aims to reduce the level of individualism in the city community through the role of architectural space as well as pet media for dogs, cats and rabbits. The methods of this study include: first, conducting literary studies, surveying and observing the location and environment surrounding the site and region; The second learns the needs of the surrounding community and the reason society becomes individualist; All three programs that suit the needs of the community with the activity collection so that the objective of the project will be achieved. Through observation, experimentation and based on precedent, it is hoped that we can obtain the criteria of architectural design to suit the needs of the surrounding community, with the main objective of unifying and interpreting the surrounding community so that Fading the sense of individualism by interacting well with the media of the same pet or hobby or craze. AbstrakManusia merupakan mahkhluk sosial yang saling membutuhkan satu sama lainnya. Manusia sebagai mahkhluk sosial tidak dapat hidup sendiri dan membutuhkan mahkhluk hidup lainnya untuk bertahan hidup. Kota ditandai sebagai  tempat dimana masyarakat tinggal dan bekerja serta merupakan pusat perekonomian. Masyarakat kota yang heterogen dan mayoritas penduduknya bekerja non-agraris menyebabkan masyarakat bersifat individualis. Masyarakat mulai melupakan arti sosialisasi yang sesungguhnya dan mulai membangun dinding antara satu dengan yang lainnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengurangi tingkat individualis dalam masyarakat kota melalui peran ruang arsitektur serta media hewan peliharaan baik anjing, kucing maupun kelinci. Metode dari penelitian ini, antara lain: pertama, melakukan studi literatur, survei dan melakukan observasi terhadap lokasi dan lingkungan sekitar tapak dan kawasan. Kedua mempelajari kebutuhan dari masyarakat sekitar dan alasan masyarakat menjadi individualis. Ketiga menyusun program yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan masyarakat dengan pendataan aktivitas sehingga diharapkan tujuan dari proyek akan tercapai. Melalui observasi, eksperimen serta berlandaskan dari preseden, diharapkan dapat memperoleh kriteria rancangan arsitektur yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan masyarakat sekitar, dengan tujuan utama untuk menyatukan dan menyetarakan masyarakat sekitar sehingga memudarkan rasa individualis dengan cara berinteraksi baik dengan media berupa hewan peliharaan maupun hobi atau kegemaran yang sama.

Tripoli is a city of a Mediterranean Sea climate; this has contributed with some social and religious factors to affect the architectural and urban design, which all originally has come from the Islamic content. This study argues the climatic features of Tripoli in order to show the ways followed by the Libyan Muslim architect. In other words, these ways were used to adapt with the climate and create the demanding architectural treatments, which have served the building units. This is considered as a study case that can discuss the possibility of the climatic reflection on the walls. That is to say, the walls’ thickness, the type of the used substance in building, the substance’s properties, the type of roof used in covering the building units and the architectural design of the building as treatments achieved professionally by the architect in decreasing the heat in summer and increasing the heat in winter through the mass block. Additionally, the researchers have stated that Tripoli’s building design respected the privacy of the inhabitants and their isolation from the world outside their buildings. That is because they wanted to have their own cold spaces inside which were rich of light, air and shadow. As a result of the aforementioned considerations, the architectural buildings contained the uncovered space and the broken entrance to keep the privacy from the passengers and to protect the inhabitants from wind and sand. These were regarded as final solutions for the architectural and climatic problem. Further, this study illustrates the active role of using the planning including the architectural formations and the treatments of motion path. That is according to their width, their length, their form, their guidance and their direction change in order to make shadow and isolate the front of buildings. This also contributed to give the streets the northern wind which in turn helped to keep the air moving as long as possible to tone down the climatic influences. Moreover, the planning aimed to show its turn through analytical, architectural and documentary survey for realistic examples in the archeological registrar of the potential city treatments. These architectural elements were important in making the sustainable architecture in respect to the environment and human relaxation requirements. Finally, the researchers measured the following factors temperatures, wind, rain, and ratio humidity for variety of spaces in the city. That was followed by qualitative and quantitative statistical analysis supported by graphs

This research paper relates to a number of works by Josef Gočár, a Bohemian architect who was active in a time period between “Cubist” vanguardism and “Rationalist” modernism. The theme regards the search for a general method which evaluates the key elements of the structure of space in architectural design. The main asset of architectural composition has traditionally been the close association between the syntactic order of the elements and a semantic perception of space. The aim of this essay is to explore the relation between the role of the experimental design regarding the multiple and changeable architectural experience and the creative process of architectural work. The methodological experience hereby demonstrated refers to a specific case study that belongs to the scientific research carried out by Gočár and his researchers’ group at the Prague Fine Arts Academy (AVU). His work is hereby re-interpreted in an effort to explore the experiential contribution to the architectural design discipline, and the figurative aspect, by reexamining various characteristics of his practical experience as an architect involved in the civic priorities of the city, from the scale of urban settlement to the individual design work.

This study focuses on Seved, a segregated and socioeconomically “poor” neighborhood in the city of Malmö in Sweden. It has attracted wide media coverage, a possible consequence of which is its increased stigmatization. The wide disparity between perceived or imagined fear and the actual incidence of, or exposure to, violence attests to the important role of the media in shaping mental maps and place images. Critical discourse analysis of daily newspaper articles shows that Seved is predominantly construed as unruly and a place of lawlessness. Mobility comprises an important aspect of the stigmatization of places, the politics of fear, and discourses of the “other.” In turn, place stigmatization, discourses of the other, and the politics of fear directly and indirectly affect mobility strategies of individuals and groups.

Urban metropolitan city-centers offer the most complex, socially connective environments in the built world. The social structures fundamentally embedded in city life are, however increasingly being overshadowed by an isolating system of city densification. The City of Toronto, as a territory of exploration, is one of many cities that are evolving a dense array of restrictive boundaries that increasingly challenge human connectivity, and the deep-rooted ability of these environments to establish vibrant city life. It is the role of architecture to mediate the relationships between the public and private territories and to understand how these environments are utilized and engaged by the surrounding context. This thesis has extracted critical environmental components exemplified in city, community, and building territories, and has re-integrated these defining characteristics into an alternative design strategy that establishes a balanced symbiotic relationship between the private and public realms of Toronto’s future City Core.

The chapter examines the succeeding leg of soldiers’ journeys to the eastern Mediterranean. It first explores the factors that shaped how soldiers viewed the city at a distance, informed by principles of the picturesque and the confidence of British predominance at sea, before examining their responses to arrival in port and their sensory immersion in the urban Levant. The chapter then shows how soldiers moved through and mentally constructed the image of the Levantine city, taking on the role of flaneur familiar from literary studies. Finally, it explores soldiers’ relationship with the crowd and their attempt to categorize the diverse population they encountered on city streets, using their writings to interrogate the notion of cosmopolitanism in history writing about the region.

The COVID-19 pandemic, with its lockdowns and mobility restrictions, has created an atmosphere of global reflection towards contemporary urban landscapes. Architecture is an essential component in them and determines, to a large extent, how building users perceive, interpret, and value the surrounding environment. From an experiential and phenomenological perspective, and taking into account the situations lived in 2020, the paper invites to examine the existing relations between architecture and urban landscape at three levels: first, the experience of the environment from the architectural space —namely, the home—; second, the experience of the “interior urban landscape” at street level; and finally, the experience of the “exterior urban landscape” from the city fringe or vantage points that provide vast prospects. The article advocates a holistic understanding of landscapes from the architectural and planning practice and proposes this integrating issue as the guiding axis of new urban policies.

Security at the city level is the security aspect that is only beginning to be recognized by Ukrainian society, although in many cities around the world, creating a secure urban space is a well-established practice or a strategic goal. A safe city includes many indicators, including infrastructure security, personal and cybersecurity, the level of crime in the city, citizens' assessment of residential areas in terms of their safety, etc., so they usually distinguish between actual and imaginary security. The role of the authorities and local governments is to provide material living conditions for the city - lighting, normal roads, repair of emergency buildings, reduction of vehicles and the priority of cyclists and pedestrians. The role of the community is indifference, the desire to create a safe atmosphere, interaction with the police through information and cooperation, through prevention. The global index of safe cities is compiled and based on an assessment of various factors that determine security. In Ukraine, a safe city is understood mainly as a city illuminated and saturated with surveillance cameras, which, surely influence its creation, but a safe city isn’t created only by the police or authorities, but includes active interaction of city authorities, police, city community. Each of these actors has a field of responsibility, but the result of their cooperation is the creation of a safe and comfortable city. The country is just beginning to involve programs aimed at intensifying cooperation between the city's actors, including "Community Police", "Neighborhood Guard", "Safe City", which have proven their effectiveness in the world. Citizens themselves and their actions naturally create an atmosphere of security on the street. In addition to actual security, another perspective of a secure city is perceived security, which is the feeling of security on a subjective level. The point is that certain places in the city can cause fear: some estranged areas, residential areas, industrial areas, any dark places and so on. Nationwide surveys recorded the level of citizens’ security and identified the most dangerous and safest regional centers.

This paper focuses on the changes in architectural aesthetic criteria, from static to dynamic values of both figurative and non-figurative aspects in contemporary architecture and its cultural context. Fluid state of architecture refers to the notions of constant variability occurring in relations between architecture and contemporary cultural context of globalisation. Contemporary context dynamises everyday perceptual experiences, living conditions and terms of spatial appropriations. Accordingly, new networking phenomena appearing on informational, communicational and spatial levels transform the city and architecture into constant process of flows, dematerialising its elements into the new fluid, variable character. Architectural aesthetic qualities simultaneously shift trough events and effects affirmation over static formal whole in transformation from objective to (inter)subjective aesthetic spatial experience. This paper is based on hypothesis that contemporary architecture is characterised by the loss of object singularity in terms of contextual conditions and assimilation of particular characters into the dynamic character of the whole. Therefore, architectural design principles shift through dispersion of disciplinary boundaries and boundaries of inner and outer architectural space, hybridity and typological definition loss. This paper presents how dematerialisation of architectural values transforms contemporary architectural space into the complex dynamic system of infrastructure, flows, events and effects.
