The objective of the paper is to show the general formal principles in the Modern and Neoclassical architectural styles based on the examples of Odessa’s architecture of the early 20th century. The article provides an analysis of the plastic expression of Revenue Houses built at the beginning of 20th century. Two Revenue Houses were the subject of detailed analysis – Chernigov and Shestopal’s Revenue House built in1912, designed by Leonid M. Chernigov; and the Karaim Society’s Revenue House, by architect: A. S. Pampulov built in 1913. The parallel existence of two architectural styles, namely Modernism and Neoclassicism, at the beginning of the 20th century, allows to formulate certain formal principles. The analysis of exemplary Revenue Houses enabled to determine the formal principles belonging to the functional-constructive, the artistic-tectonic and the decorative-symbolic decoration. In addition, the impact of Modern style on neoclassical style was established. Despite formal stylistic contradictions and lack of homogeneity of forms and shapes in architecture of different stylistic schools the same formal principles are applied, which allows one to date a building to one epoch, a certain historical period of architecture’s development.
