Place and time in architecture of university campuses

Abstract

University campuses are multifunctional complexes comprising academic, residential, cultural and leisure facilities and public spaces. They fully reflect modern trends in shaping the architectural environment of cities. It is in universities that distance and network learning technologies have been tested in recent years, which inevitably affects the concepts of ‘place’ and ‘time’ in their organisation. In this article, the ‘artificial’ architectural environment is understood as an environment which is created simultaneously under the influence of realistic requirements for the organization of spatial environment and virtual commitments to creating a common information space.
