This paper examines the concept of architectural form as the boundaries of external and internal characteristics of the form, its role in the structure of the compositional image and the disclosure of certain aspects of forming, characteristic of different types of materials, their assortment and typification.
In writing the article, general scientific and special methods of scientific research were used. The article also examines the state of research on the concept of architectural form, determining that building materials are the material basis that allows the architectural form proposed by an architect and designer to be realized as an architectural object. The main part of the objects currently under construction are residential and public buildings, mainly frame, monolithic-frame, monolithic or panel, with different number of storeys and comfort level. Such diversity leads to a significant variety of objects under construction, requires the study and use of compositional and constructive methods and means in architectural design.
The practical value of the work is that the results of this study can be used by architects in the process of sketching and conceptual design of architectural objects. After all, every architect should be able to navigate the theoretical provisions of architectural composition, master the tools for building architectural forms, identify ways to create their own arsenal of creative tools in various design situations, select materials for specific purposes in accordance with the planning structure and tectonics of the architectural form; perform a feasibility study of options for architectural and urban planning design solutions.
