The article deals with the concept of the flexible office as a modern type of workspace designed to provide a variety of places and ways to work and identifies the main design techniques used to implement the concept and philosophy of "flexibility” on the example of the interior design of the co-working centre. The purpose of the article is to define the specifics of implementing the flexible office concept in the context of the co-working center design. Research methodology. A complex of general scientific methods and methods of contemporary art history are applied: generalisation and systematisation of materials on the problems of flexible office design; the system analysis method, which facilitated the study of the characteristic features of the flexible office design as elements of a single whole; the method of structural and functional analysis, which revealed features of the flexible office as one of the most popular types of working space; classification method through which the basic principles of the flexible office concept are established and analysed through the prism of the co-working centre design. Scientific novelty. The main trends of flexible office design are theorised; the specifics of the design approach to the formation of co-working centre space are examined as an example of the embodiment of the basic principles of flexible office design. Conclusions. The study of design approaches for the co-working centre space formation proved their compliance with the main principles of flexible office design – smart space architecture, functional adequacy and ergonomic perfection of the furniture, inclusiveness, acoustics, air conditioning, natural components, maintaining the possibility of changing lighting level, colouring scheme aimed at maintaining and enhancing attention and ability to work. It is found that although the main planning type in the co-working centre is universal, combining open and cubicle types, their design suggests adherence to the concept of a flexible office. The key elements of flexible office design have a huge impact on the working atmosphere of the co-working center and are used by designers to support efficient work. Main design solutions to optimize the co-working center space in line with the flexible office philosophy, which includes adaptation to the residents’ needs and establishing communications, are the main driving force behind the workflow. The concept of the flexible office in the context of the specifics of a co-working center supports the trend towards the transformation of activities and behavior, provides the resident with the space that best meets his needs and the ability to choose where he wants to work and/or rest at any moment. The co-working center design forms a unique communicative space for inspiration, creativity, and reflection by creating interiors that inspire and reflect the visual trends of the socio-cultural space of the beginning of the 21st century. Stimulation of creative and cognitive work patterns following the main trends of the flexible office concept contributes to increased work capacity. The subject-spatial environment of the flexible office creates a characteristic emotional state and intensifies communication in the co-working center, becoming one of the factors in mobilizing the creative process and enabling residents to make bold professional decisions.
The industrial design is one of the ways to express one’s own ideas, to embody images; however, for this, one should possess a complex of knowledge and skills in the field of theory and history of design. This has determined the relevance of the presented scientific work. The purpose of the academic paper lies in establishing the effectiveness of the introduction of training courses dedicated to the evolution of the artistic image in the interior design; describing the experience of studying the evolution of artistic images in design, which helps to create design projects according to a certain style and genre; determining the attitude of students to educational and content innovations. The learning algorithm was presented in the form of 3 stages, namely: theoretical; creating a design from the textual description of Dynamic Memory Generative Adversarial Network (DM-GAN); defining genre and style compatible with genre using WikiArt; creating stylization in the interior design. The hypothesis of the research lies in the fact that the end-to-end solution for the practice of creating artistic images in the appropriate genre and style of design is the introduction of creative projects according to a well-defined algorithm. The result of the research is the successful introduction of a step-by-step method of a creative project based on using an artistic component in the interior design. In the perspective, research projects will be introduced, which on a deep theoretical basis will make it possible to correctly generate the desired artistic image in design practice, according to a specific genre, artistic stylization.
The purpose of the article is to identify and analyze the forms and means of conducting educational webinars in art institutions of higher education that provide effective professional training in the context of distance learning using web resources, and to explore the significance of educational webinars in modern conditions. The research methodology is based on an interdisciplinary synthesis of scientific methods and approaches integrated from pedagogy and art history; general scientific methods of analysis, synthesis, generalization. The scientific novelty of the article lies in highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of distance learning in the acquisition of value orientations, aesthetic experience and special abilities in the educational process. The article discusses the method of distance learning ‒ a webinar. The perspective of this method as a form of communicative interaction is indicated, which increases the possibilities of creative activity of applicants for education, acquiring a set of performing, professional competencies aimed at the artistic and creative self-realization of the individual in various types of art, in comparison with traditional teaching methods. The main stages of organizing and conducting webinars are outlined. Ways to improve their efficiency are considered. The problems and prospects of using webinars as a model of social interaction between a teacher and a student in the field of distance education are analyzed. The online method of teaching was studied with a focus on achieving a given level of competence and professionalism in mastering information and communication technologies. Keywords: webinar; distance education; blended learning; information; competencies; online learning; offline learning; computer technology.
The purpose of the article is to identify current trends in the use of works of fine art in the interior of the premises, as well as to clarify the impact of works of art in the interior on the psychophysical state of a person. The research methodology contains general scientific theoretical methods of analysis, synthesis, abstraction and observation, as well as art analysis. The scientific novelty is to determine the features of the influence of works of modern art both on the appearance of the premises themselves and on the psychophysical state of a person. The paper attempts to identify the features of human interaction with works of contemporary art, in particular in the aspects of interactivity, relaxation and aesthetic pleasure. The article contains an explanation of the artistic techniques used to achieve such effects. The analysis of works of modern painting by the artist O. Yasenev, placed in the interior of the premises, is used in the work. Conclusions. The study identified the benefits of applying contemporary art in the interior. The use of art, which is created on the border of figurative and abstract perception, is common today. In particular, such art often has a surreal component, which encourages the viewer to interact with the imagination the most. This approach is reinforced by the technique of work with a trace of deliberate imperfection, which also creates the ground for co-creation. Such work can divert the attention of the recipients, distract them from everyday worries and promote their relaxation. The mentioned technique also contributes to the visual expansion of the space of the room. In fact, such criteria should be followed by the designer when selecting works of art in the design of modern interiors.
It is noted that hydroponic technologies for growing vegetables require careful running of all necessary technological operations. Failure of one of them can result in failure to obtain the maximum possible productivity of plants of appropriate quality. Maintenance of the entire system of ensuring a high-quality hydroponic regime for growing vegetables is economically costly. However, even under such growing conditions, vegetable crops are far from optimal. Repeated use of artifcial substrates contributes to the accumulation of phytopathogenic substances of phenolic nature and, as a consequence, reduces the yield of crops. These substrates do not produce enough CO2 and plants need it. It is shown that the main function of soil both in the feld and especially in soil greenhouses and hothouses is reduced to its ability to accumulate organic acids produced by plants, as these substances have a detrimental effect on the plant itself. The next step is the interaction of organic acids with the soil, which it adsorbs. The colloidal fraction of the soil and organic compounds from the root systems create new components that become available to plants after a corresponding period of interaction with the soil absorption complex. It is established that it is enough to apply fresh manure in cattle in the amount of 90–100 t/ha, but after a year. After growing vegetables in the fall (cucumber, tomato), their stems were removed and placed in the pit of a shelving greenhouse, where California worms were grown, in order to obtain compost. In greenhouses freed from grain crops, green manure crops (oil radish, winter rape) were sown, pre-treated surface soil. The soil of greenhouses and hothouses can be used for a long period of 30 years or more, using crop rotation from vegetable, grain and medicinal tropical crops without the cost of electricity to maintain light - temperature growing conditions in spring-summer-autumn periods. Key words: hydroponics, soil greenhouses, vegetable, grain and medicinal tropical crops, cultural change of growing conditions in spring-summer-autumn periods.
