The context of any place means existing "here" and "now" in a particular urban interior, a particular urban structure. The context of experience is an act of subjective evaluation necessary to make an appropriate, objective evaluation of architectonic and urban space. In other words context is a series of linked events needed to understand an existitng fact. When does the context of experience - context of the place form? Looking for the answer I chose two areas that became the objects of my research. The first area was Nikiszowiec housing estate - a district in Katowice, the second one - several places in the centre of Katowice. Nikiszowiec is one of the most interesting, not degraded workers' colonies built at the turn of 19th and 20th centuries. In 1978 Nikiszowiec was officially recognized as a historical object. Now, Nikiszowiec is considered an example of a typical Silesian workers' housing estate, having all qualities that constitute the place's identity. The turn of 19th and 20th centuries was a period of transfering English patterns to Europe, especially to Germany. They accepted the English architecture to such an extent that in 1908 it was propagated among German architects and enterpreneurs in a form of emperor's directives. The centre of Katowice is marked by examples of modern architecture, especially bank buildings. In the beginning an average user of the city had problems with accepting such a style, but then the started to get used to it, gradually creating a new context of the place. Contemporary architecture, its details upset us. We regard them as being out of context. Conclusion: The context of the place is being created at a particular moment. Proividing the models, culture and designer's skills are of good quality - the effect may be positive.
