Contemplative architecture

Abstract

This study shows the attempts of stylistic architecture (in its historical understanding) to resist the second global style, Modern Movement, that arose at the end of the 19th century. However, all the postulates of the Modern Movement have already been implemented. However, the architecture of the second global style turned out to be uncompetitive in relation to Classicism. Therefore, the search for something new and attempts to return to style architecture are continuing. Such a return is theoretically impossible. The time has come to update the theoretical basis of architecture. We are witnessing the advent of phenomenological architecture—the architecture of the structure of consciousness and feelings. The main starting point for changing the theoretical basis of architecture is the emergence c of a “networked person” who seeks reconciliation with the outside world. The article proposes some provisions for the manifesto of contemplative architecture.
