The article highlights the issue of social and cultural clashes of different segments of the population of Kazakhstan. Art is a way of communication; so Darezen Omirbaev expressed his opinion about the current situation in independent Kazakhstan in 1991 through the film "Kairat". According to the plot, the main character, Kairat, leaves his village and moves to a big city -Alma-Ata. These are two fundamentally different spaces, both architecturally and socioculturally. As the director demonstrated, -the city did not accept a resident of another class, a different type of thinking. Kairat, as a representative of the Kazakhspeaking culture of Kazakhstan, ineptly tries to integrate into the Russian-speaking urban environment. The frames are filled with archetypal images that allow a more in-depth look at the conflict between the film and society. The article provides data that demonstrate how the situation with the film industry and language policy in Kazakhstan has changed.
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to analyze the social and functional features of micro-apartment and, based on the findings, to demonstrate the projects of modern micro-apartment designed for one or two people, which are implemented in the experimental design.Design/methodology/approachBased on the analysis of the study of theoretical scientific works on the research topic and from the standpoint of an interdisciplinary discourse the social and economic prerequisites for the demand for such a dwelling are determined and the categories of citizens for whom a micro-apartment is an advantage are identified. Particular attention is paid to the typological boundaries of the study, the generalization and synthesis of sources which is reflected in identifying the features of the functional zoning of a micro-apartment in connection with the needs of residents and determining modern ways to improve the comfort of living.FindingsAt the examples of experimental design of micro-apartment for the city of Almaty we substantiated the expanding the existing typology of residential buildings by adding a new type of urban dwelling – a micro-apartment which occupies a niche between apartment housing for permanent residence and traditional hotels.Originality/valueThe content of the study is devoted to the analysis of a micro-apartment as a new type of modern urban dwelling for a single and small-family population. Urban residents’ interest in economical, affordable small-area dwellings as well as the need to study and design micro format dwellings for the modern urban environment is a topical issue.
Introduction: The article carried out work on the study of the formation of the comfort of living in the Almaty city, the Republic of Kazakhstan. Materials and Methods: Analysis of the natural, historical and architectural and planning prerequisites for the emergence and development of the concepts of "living environment", "urban environment", "image of the city" as a space for meeting the needs of residents – economic and household, consumer, educational, cultural, etc. Results and Discussion: The work is based on publications of authoritative sources, and reflects the directions of the authors' research in the framework of scientific research and pedagogical work in the field of design of the architectural environment. Conclusions: The work is based on the following basic elements: urban housing is part of a large system of the urban environment of the city with varying degrees of interconnections; the design of the architectural environment is a specialty that takes into account the formation of the subject-spatial environment, as well as the issues of its qualitative functioning in accordance with the needs of the individual and society as a whole; regardless of the initial qualities, the architecture, the subject-spatial environment of the dwelling and the city acquire the features of regionality as it functions; regional style is a materialized subject-spatial object created on the basis of a cultivated aesthetic image and way of being in a given area.
