The author outlines the development of the United Europe concept and free movement idea as ideas evolving in the course of decades and which were realised in Europe in the last and present centuries. The free movement idea is shown as a crowning achievement of the Schengen Agreement, along with preceding legal international acts. The author underlines the connections between the transformations of Western political and economic order and gradual opening of the Commonwealth’s borders. She stresses that the practical effectiveness of the Schengen Agreement solutions decided on the fact that along with the Amsterdam Treaty coming into force (acquis), the Schengen Agreement was included into the European Union’s legal framework (acquis communautaire). Lifting the borders within the European Union (EU), in spite of the fact that its genesis is outside the EU law, became, after including the Schengen Agreement (acqius) into the EU legal framework, one of the fundamental principles constituting the EU, as well as a logical complement of a unified market and the expression of far-reaching trust that the signatories of the Agreement mutually placed.

Nowadays there is a need for 'infinite' architecture. Buildings and structures should be in state of constant change in order to match the dynamic processes taking place in a modern city: its fragmentation and ephemeral character, vivid cultural context, mobility and interlace of infra, urban material and landscape. Furthermore, urban sprawl creates an exponential growth of continuously moving masses - housing, working and recreation are situated far apart, so everybody is continuously on the move. With the intention to deal with horizontal density expansion, urban development seems to be a major policy and a central principle of growth management programs used by cities around the word. One way to create density is stacking programs, structures and volumes, still leaving necessary unbuilt voids. All this leads to creating more challenging and dense contexts for currently realized projects.

Fragmentacja miasta, tzw. 'urban growth' i zapotrzebowanie na projektowanie budynków o elastycznym i multifunkcjonalnym programie prowadzą do tego, że architektura współczesnych miast musi się mierzyć z nowym rodzajem kontekstu. Terytorium architektury rozszerza się na węzły komunikacyjne, poprzemysłowe tereny, otoczenia autostrad, parkingi i przejścia podziemne, mosty i wiadukty, dachy i ściany istniejących budynków, torowiska kolejowe, etc. Na podstawie wybranych realizacji i koncepcji w artykule przeanalizowano zależności między architekturą a takim nietypowym "agresywnym" kontekstem.
