Orangery structures were built in the whole Polish Commonwealth already from the 18th century. These structures were constructed both in large complexes of landed estates owned by aristocracy and in smaller manor-house/park complexes owned by the gentry.The popularity of these glasshouses (greenhouses) stemmed from their utilitarian functions and from the fashion for exotic plants which were often used and placed in the open as decoration for the gardens surrounding palaces and manors. Greenhouse buildings were divided into cool greenhouses, so-called orangeries, andheated greenhouses, called hothouses. The former type, often called orangeries, prevailed in the Lublin province. The models of ready-made orangery structures could be found in various guides. In the 19th and early 20th centuries the publications by Edmund Jankowski and Józef Strumiłło were highly popular. The books presented the basic principles of developing greenhouse buildings and adapting the already existing old orangeries, and described plant species suitable for different types of hothouses and cool greenhouses, taking their requirements and ways of growing into account. The article presents the basic assumptions of constructing these types of buildings. The author characterizes the still extant orangeries in the Lublin province as compared with the available design patterns. Apart from orangeries, the study also presents winter gardens accompanying palaces and manors, which functionally complemented the residences. The article also discusses the rules of designing these types of interiors and thebasic plant species used in those facilities.

The project of a residential building (unit) of a proper size (unité de grandeur conforme) was designed in Le Corbusier’s atelier in Paris from the late 1940s on. Prepared by Jerzy Sołtan and Gerard Hanning, it was a theoretical model and was meant to be an answer to the shortage of housing after World War Two; it would also solve the functional program in an innovative way and at the same time would be based on the principles of the contemporary architecture created by Le Corbusier. For Le Corbusier, a very important part of the project was the spatial solution of the utilitarian roof. Essential elements here were: the landscape of the south of France, its scenic connections, spatial relationships and the silhouette of the City of Marseilles: these were called basic joys (joies essentielles), which should belong to everybody. The paper shows the histories of three buildings embodying the idea of the total housing unit: the prototype – the Marseilles Unit, its late copy – the Berlin Unit, and the Polish realization designed and built in Katowice by Mieczysław Król.

The Włodawa estates were located in the area of the historical Podlasie region, at the meeting of former lands of the Kingdom of Poland, Grand Duchy of Lithuania and Ruthenian Duchies. They were situated on the hilly banks of the Bug river valley. In 1818 they became the property of Stanisław Kostka Zamoyski, the founder of the Włodawa line of the Zamoyski Entail, who chose Różanka as his seat. After the Różanka palace was burned down by Russian troops in 1915, Konstanty Zamoyski ordered an eclectic palace and park complex to be built in Adampol. The eclectic palace complex designed by Jan Koszczyc Witkiewicz combines different architectural styles, while the historical elements such as coats of arms, marble fi replaces, sculptures or the furnishings of the chapel (stained glass windows) transferred from the destroyed palace at Różanka, form a kind of Lapidarium and remind us of the palace which is no more. The article discusses the history of the palace and park complexes in Różanka and Adampol, the transformations that the two complexes underwent, and their present condition.
