The article explores the concept of dormitory housing as a distinct architectural and typological category in contemporary architecture and defines its role in shaping a new paradigm of residential environments in the 21st century. The historical origins and evolution of dormitory spaces are analyzed, tracing their transformation from monastic sleeping quarters and educational institutions to modern multifunctional residential complexes that combine private and shared areas.

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.
