The research presented in this paper addresses the process of architectural design and particularly the role of graphic representations in that process. The present paper gives a brief state-of-the-art in the fields of design process and drawings that are involved in that process, but also tries to emphasize the importance of process drawings in the context of the architectural studio which represents the basic framework for acquiring the skills of architectural design. The findings of this study indicate that different types of drawings play a key role in the design process and that the creation of these graphic representations can be identified with the thinking process in architecture.
This paper presents a research dealing with the phenomenon of water in the city of Subotica, namely places of memory, symbols and water marks as a key element in the public space. The subject of research in the broader context is the cultural memory of a city on its own development, which manifests itself in the memory of the individual and groups, but, more importantly, in the architecture and urban planning of the city as the material expression of social life. Through the research process, the connection between architecture, urban morphos and collective memory of the inhabitants has been confirmed. It was also found that the water element is one of the most important factors that influenced the spatial disposition of the city structure. Due to the lack of active politics, there is a doubt that this connection will be forgotten, therefore it is necessary to redefine the identity of Subotica, or to establish it simultaneously on collective memories of people, and material or non-material cultural heritage, through the process of contemporary creativity.
УВОДИмајући у виду четири основна принципа на којима се базирају активности Савета Европе из области културе: промовисање идентитета, подстицање креативности, поштовање културне разноврсности и подстицање учествовања у културном животу [1], основана је паневропска мрежа сарадње између различитих градова која се бави истраживањем, проучавањем и промовисањем уметности и архитектуре стилског правца сецесије -Мрежа градова сецесије (Réseau Art Nouveau Network) [2]. На иницијативу Департмана за историјска места и споменике бриселског региона [3], велика група институција из градова широм Европе: од Глазгова до Будимпеште, од Барселоне до Хелсинкија, удружила се у овој Мрежи како би, строго поштујући научни приступ, размењивала знања и искуства која се односе на уметност и архитектуру у стилу сецесије, као и да би широј европској публици 1 Доц. др Викторија Алаџић, дипл. инж. арх., Универзитет у Новом Саду, Грађевински факултет Суботица, Козарачка 2а, Суботица, Србија, тел: 024 554 300,
