ZAERA-POLO’S ARCHITECTURAL COMPASS AS A RESEARCH TOOL FOR MODERN CONCEPTS OF ARCHITECTURAL ENVIRONMENT DESIGN
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.
