The article reflects the interim results of a study conducted by the authors within the framework of the scientific project “Architects and engineers of the eastern outskirts of Russia (second half of the 19th – early 20th centuries)”. On the basis of archival data and materials of field surveys, the authors present a systematized picture of the professional activity of the Chita architect, construction technician Fedor Evplovich Ponomarev. The surviving buildings of the architect are considered, the characteristic features of his work are revealed.

The exhibition dedicated to the 80th anniversary of Andrey Vladimirovich Bokov opened on the day of his jubilee, 26 September, at the Pushkin State Museum. Two parts of the exhibition included two components of A. V. Bokov’s creative activity – architectural graphics and collages composed of photos of his realised projects.

At the beginning of the 21st century the world has moved into the phase of global restructuring characterised by large-scale crises of life organization and science. For any science it is important to investigate the methodology of its cognition. Architecture and urban planning are no exception. The current commercial and industrial civilisation is built upon Western European positivism based on individualism, for which it is important how phenomena occur, not why they occur. The alternative to such a vision is a cosmic worldview based on the search for a genetic, eternal and always consistent connection between humans and nature in the space of the biosphere. The current instrumental and technical progress should be replaced by an organic progress that considers man and nature in a single connected Co-existence. This approach dictates a new urban planning in the perspective of cybernotopics, which considers the triad “nature – population – economy” as a flow pattern – the phenomenon of synchronicity in the dynamic, changeable, mobile equilibrium in the space of the biosphere. The technical external process of the impact on nature should be replaced by an organic process.

During the twentieth century, reinforced concrete acquired a status of a leading building material. Its wide application influenced the construction technologies and the layout of cities and largely shaped the aesthetics of modernism. At the beginning of this century, the cost of cement and concrete production is showing rapid growth, and the environmental burden from cement production is becoming increasingly unacceptable. Economic and environmental factors force us to look for a replacement for reinforced concrete. In particular, there is renewed interest in wood-based building materials. The problem is that the dominance of concrete has formed a stable orientation of architects to a specific set of properties – isotropy, high density, fire safety, and so on, which are absent from wood. A compromise option is cross-laminated timber (CLT), which at the same time has its own disadvantages and limitations. The article concludes that it is necessary to diversify the palette of building materials and develop special training programs for architects to work with a wide range of building materials.

The article considers one of the most striking objects of the Soviet period, the House of Soviets, at different stages of its realisation – from its design to final result. On the example of the Irkutsk House of Soviets the peculiarities of the approach to buildings of this type are revealed: architectural competitions, complex environmental approach, stylistic features associated with ideological attitudes, construction problems.

The article deals with the essential regularities of form making in architecture. The authors outline two logics of aesthetic organisation of visual material. One logic goes from inside to outside – from the internal structure of the object to its external form as a system of information expression of the functional and planning organisation and structure; the other logic goes from outside – from the artistic and figurative solution for the architectural environment of the town-planning complex to the building, to its tectonics and geometric form. The analysis of modern architectural practice gives the authors an idea that the true architectural form should be sought beyond the styles and that extra-architectural associations today may be much more fruitful than turning to the trendiest styles.

Does a theory of architecture exist? If so, what does it involve? Researching and analysing what has already been implemented? Refining methods and matrices based on practice? In other words, is the theory secondary? The debate about this has been going on for many years and even centuries. But today, in the age of robots and computers, the question of architectural theory takes on a new meaning. As the development of technology accelerates all practical processes – from design approval to the construction of objects in material, when million cities appear on an empty place in five years, and single buildings – in a fortnight, the practice of architecture more closely resembles a cross-country race. One can assume that the practitioner behind the wheel is increasingly in need of a theorist, a navigator who follows the road on a map and charts the course of the journey. Or do the theories in this race follow the findings and insights of the practitioners? In this issue of the journal, we have collected several contemporary views on architectural theory. These views are heterogeneous and often do not agree with each other. The map on which the route of architectural development is travelled is pieced together from scraps, sketches and fragments of accurate but outdated plans and outlines. But we have no other map, and we will have to improve the theory and its connection with the practice right on the move. It is noteworthy that the news section also touches upon the theme of the issue: it opens with the jubilee exhibitions of Maria Nashchokina, a well-known theoretician and historian of architecture, and Andrey Bokov, a prominent practitioner and theorist.

From the current turbulent and fast-paced century, the 19th and even a part of the 20th centuries look unhurried, steady and full of common sense. The classical order system of proportions and the methods of town-planning tested over the centuries served as a reliable basis for creative searches for new architecture. In the block “Practitioners” we publish rare biographical and analytical materials on the architects of the Russian Far East and Siberia little-known to the general architectural public. It was here where the unity of theory and practice was preserved until the middle of the new twentieth century. Buildings and archival materials of that era show how harmonious and balanced can be the mood of architecture, in which practice is based on a solid foundation of theory. The cultural heritage of the past – from the ancient city plans of the Middle East to the Soviet architecture of the country’s post-war reconstruction period – is a huge and growing asset useful for architecture in its new stage of accelerating development.
