The Austro-Hungarian Ring Boulevards as the Space for Representation of Identities

Cherkes B., Kolomyeytsev A.

Środowisko Mieszkaniowe

2014

nr 13

37--42

The public space of the city was always the most important place for representation of social, national, religious and other kinds of identities. Today‘s multitude of identities and the speed of their change require new models of their coexistence within central public space of the city. Austro-Hungarian architects have already been confronted with similar issues in the second half of the 19th and at the beginning of the 20th centuries. They used the space of the former defensive city walls or other vacant spaces for creating the loop with public buildings, places, streets, parks and monuments that represented cultural and social richness of Austro-Hungarian population and complex structure of authority. Their methods and strategies can be used in today’s practice of city planning.

Semiotics of the City's Pedestrian Space

Linda S., Kolomyeytsev A.

Środowisko Mieszkaniowe

2014

nr 13

125--129

This article presents the study of the semiotic approach to the organization of both visible and invisible signs, by which the pedestrian is daily confronted in different environments of the city. Article starts with retrospective of the scientific studies of city‘s semiotic dimension beginning from Kevin Lynch and up to such contemporaries as Umberto Eco, Alexendros Lagopoulos and others. The article helps to consider the denotational and the connotational functions of urban semiotics. This text highlights the difference between the semiotic perception of the city by pedestrian and a person that uses some type of vehicle. Analysis of the change in treating the city’s semiotic domain in preindustrial, industrial and postindustrial periods helps to capture the negative aspects of this process. This provides us with possibility to detect the challenges and to define the preconditions for creation of the comfortable and rich pedestrian environment of the city.
