The Essay is a consideration about design culture and design art in the Nordic countries. Author has used a very special quotation of famous Finnish writer - Johanna Sinisalo, as she wrote - there are many characteristic elements, which define Finnish culture, but the most important constitutes a nature. Every Finnish man seems to be connected with nature in particular and personal way. In Finland, culture and nature do not fight with themselves, moreover - they are not mutually exclusive. Actually, culture and nature come between themselves through their territories, pervades and make an influential stress each other. Author has noticed, the best constitute proof of existence of symbiosis between culture and nature in Finland is design, which is descended from this recess of the world - Scandinavian design. She explains this special reference in title, which shows homestead as birthplace in the meaning of origin. This dispute shows, Scandinavian design has developed very well and paradoxically, it negates opinion about issue, that this world area has confined oneself to glorious past of three postwar decades, when created the most famous and known projects. Author has convinced, that it is possible to treat home not only as micro-space, but also as metaphor of activity and state of the spirit, also in the practice meaning - utterly applied, but with artistic concealed. That is a reason, why it constitutes home as a place, in which everyday life is covered with art, and artistic craftsmanship becomes specific image or label of well-known designers, which marks their creativity behind their objects (pieces of art). That is why, homesteads become the art gallery. These art galleries are not only a place with collected masterpieces, these places create possibility for space, in which even sponge has taken by surprise form and idea. Author confirms, there is nothing strange, that projects are intended for home. In Finland, design functioned and has functioned not only in the aesthetic or utilitarian meaning, but constitute one of the constructing elements of nation identity. As author has convinced, beyond any diagnosis, it is possible say with noticeable Elizabeth Gaynor's opinion - Finland is a shy beauty, not shining fairness. Everything seems to have its own place in this surroundings including the man. Finnish artists derive main inspiration source from nature.

Analysis of tasks of designing contemporary sacred architecture in view of the author's own designing experience in the field encourages an attempt at a synthetic presentation of a number of problems. After 1970, obtaining planning permission for sacred objects was much easier than it had been before in Poland, e.g. in cases when the building area did not exceed 250 m2. Such a church was then called a 'chapel'. Another range covered buildings with an area not exceeding 600 m2. Designers often tried to circumvent those regulation by designing two-storey churches with the lower storey partly sunken into the ground. It seems that the legal regulations relating to the designed church area to some extent influenced also their form. Despite its large diversity of form, the church architecture of that time did not entirely free itself from the traditional patterns. The process of church construction involved an investor, a contractor and a designer. In many cases the construction was carried out according to a do-it-yourself method, and the architect was often surprised by changes made without his consent. The actual building created under such circumstances often significantly deviated from the design as he was excluded from the very process of construction. However, it should be emphasized that these problems occurred only in the implementation of some of the sacred buildings. However, many outstanding examples of religious architecture have also been built in Poland. Since 1989, a planning permission to build a church has not required special procedures to bypass the building code, and the designer now has a much greater influence on the ultimate outcome of his work. Therefore the majority of the problems discussed herein, characteristic of church architecture of the nineteen seventies and eighties, have already passed.

One of the strategies of successful coping with the challenges of population ageing is the development of assistance systems for elderly people. Thanks to them they can live in their own households for the longest time. This paper is based on an ethnographic case study and explains the ways elderly people are involved in the development of intelligent assistance systems. On the basis of participatory observation and qualitative interviews, it can be concluded that the participation of elderly people in the design of technological devices often happens at the final stage of approval of technical prototypes, as a result of which the perspective of the testing users cannot be appropriately considered in the prototype design. This means that the appearance and functions of the technical facilities are based mainly on the cultural premises and designer’s perceptions of the old age and ageing, and less on the experience and needs of their future users. The contribution observes this tension in relationships through ethnography.

TOWARDS UNDERSTANDING VISUAL STYLES AS INVENTIONS WITHOUT EXPIRATION DATES: HOW THE VIEW OF ARCHITECTURAL HISTORY AS PERMANENT PRESENCE MIGHT CONTRIBUTE TO REFORMING EDUCATION OF ARCHITECTS AND DESIGNERS

The main thesis of the article is that there are good reasons for seeing the pre-modernist architectural and design idioms as still valid and feasible visual inventions, in contrast to the modernist view that has considered them as stone-dead expressions of past historical periods. The thesis is backed up by philosophical arguments developed by the late British philosopher Karl Popper. The present author concludes that there are no reasonable arguments for why the present schools of architecture and design should keep limiting the education of future architects and designers to the modernist visual idiom alone, as they have been doing since the 1950s.

The paper deals with the possible parallels between Heidegger's aesthetic thinking and aesthetics of the Bauhaus art and design. The authors examine to what extent could philosophy of given period interfere with the development of modern art, while exploring and analysing different theses of theorists who have expressed on given subject. Heidegger wrote three key texts (Das Ding 1950, Bauen, Wohnen, Denken 1951, Die Frage nach der Technik 1954), which embraced the theory of design. The authors of the paper examine to what extent Heidegger theses could have an impact on contemporary product design.

After the time of relatively easy creating and using asynchronous electronic trainings, the challenges of modern academic didactics and rapid development of ICT have caused the increase of quality requirements for new e-learning courses. Professional production of such electronic trainings is costly and requires the cooperation of many specialists: the authors of e-learning content, instructional designers, graphic designers, software engineers, tutors and e-learning platform administrators. This challenge was taken by the project team of the University of Gdansk, which elaborated and implemented six multimedia interactive e-learning courses. The article describes the assumptions and results of implementation of the project 'Academic courses of distance teaching at the University of Gdansk'.

This study focuses on the problems of project management and operational management of tour operators and travel agencies in the context of their internationalization and globalization. In theory and practice related to the impact of globalization on tourism there are a lot of questionable opinion that either emphasize the positive aspect of this impact, or suggest that the tourism industry is dominated by small and medium-sized enterprises, with limited ability to carry out a systematic and simultaneous operations (rotation) in a dozen countries. This paper is trying to analyze the problems of the mentioned controversy and to present such a model (phases model) in both project management and operational management of tour operators and travel agencies, which would allow for effective action both at local and global effects and avoiding threats posed by globalization.

Some have argued that because artifacts are not natural kinds, they fall outside of the domain of the theory-theory of concepts. To the contrary, artifact concepts function very much like natural kind concepts. A causal-explanatory structure known as 'the design stance' underlies adult concepts of artifacts. According to the design stance, each artifact's existence, kind, and properties can be explained by the function intended by its designer. The notion of intended function constrains reasoning about artifacts just as representations of causal essences constrain reasoning about natural kinds. Furthermore, just as some framework theories that constrain representations of natural kinds, such as a vitalist biology, must be constructed in childhood, so too the design stance is not constructed until the late preschool years (being consolidated between four and six years of age.) Unlike vitalist biology, though, the construction of the design stance builds upon developmental primitives that are part of the early developing systems of infant core knowledge, especially those within core knowledge of intentional agency.

The paper is introduction to the metamorphosis of the Slovak stage design from the 1970s up to present. The author focuses on the expansion of conventional theatre space in the Slovak context (auditorium/stage) by new acting locations (street, square, railway station, i.e. site-specific locations) and other changes related to modernism, post-modernism and trans-culturalism in the arts/ the theatre. Today, stage design reflects the feelings and a flurry of emotions of an individual and of the society. It makes use of the state-of-the-art technology not only to finish off a message but also to disintegrate an idea, a plot and to act as a counterpoint to the word or the theme. On the one hand, it is dynamic and polyfunctional, on the other hand, it is static and semiotic. New theatre forms reflect the time we live. The story has disappeared from the theatre and it has been replaced by the images, emotions of an actor/performer, thus representing his/their (self) knowledge. Oftentimes, the stage designer is within the performer who lives the time together with “his/her” audience.

The aim of this article is to analyse the exhibition semantics of the exposition of the H.S. Skovoroda National Literary and Memorial Museum (Ukraine, Kharkiv region). The authors substantiate the concept of dearchaisation of Skovoroda’s image by means of modelling the syntax and semantics of the exhibition space. According to the authors, exhibition design cannot ignore symbolism, as the principles of cultural consumption of “places of memory” function in the stream of consumption of a work of art. The viewer does not come for the subject, but for emotions and experience. Therefore, design should go beyond the physical properties of objects, subjects, compositions, and so on, and the content of any design should ultimately be the conditions for gaining new experience. The relationship between the material (object) and the imaginary (interpretation) is projected at the intersection of exhibition syntax and semantic modelling.

The constant development of multimedia technologies and, as a result, their rapid spread among countries around the world has been a general trend in digital art in the late twentieth and early twenty-first century. This phenomenon, as practice shows, comes out top among other creative activities. With the help of multimedia technologies it is possible to optimize multimedia systems in figurative and meaningful value relations. An important role here is given to the development of a unique multimedia “language”, which harmoniously combines technical, creative and value-oriented components. This article presents an analysis of the use of the subversive method in solving scenario-design problems for the preservation of elements of cultural heritage through the use of 3D mapping and video projection in exhibition space design and for projections onto the facades of architectural landmarks. The content of such video projections and specific characteristics of the artistic images they draw upon depend on the functional purpose of the context in which the interactive work is presented. There remains a need for greater scientific understanding of the phenomenon of interactive art, in the interests of improving professional design practices in the preservation of cultural heritage works.

This article represents the beginning of fashion journalism. Although fashion papers appeared in the Slovak magazine Dennica after 1908, we can speak about the beginnings of Slovak fashion journalism in the postwar period. In January 1949, the first Slovak fashion magazine Mariena was started. However, it was published for only one year, and in 1950 it was replaced by the magazine Móda – textil (Fashion – Textile). In 1961 it was renamed Naša móda (Our Fashion) and later in 1968 to Móda (Fashion). It became part of the editorial office and as well as a design studio, where after 1969 it began to implement its own models, published in the magazine. Magazine Móda have become interesting platforms for close cooperation of experts - editors, designers, photographers, and other technology professionals.

The inspiration for the article was the sociological survey by Aleksander Wallis and later Florian Zielinski on urban space and the information vesture of the city. However, the article focuses only on the ideological aspects of Polish libraries which are recognized only via the names of library patrons, monuments in and around the library buildings, their design, architecture esthetics etc. It has been shown that typical choices are connected with the local historical figures, well known people who were born in the local neighborhood or people who were important for Polish culture, mainly literature and science.

Modern automotive brand museums belong to the corporate museum class; thus, they are versatile in that they perform multiple tasks. They not only satisfy the visitors’ desire to receive new information, but also realise the business goals of brand representation, both increasing loyalty to it, and developing corporate culture. The current trend in automotive brand museums’ design is that the artistic solutions for the exhibition environment form associations among visitors that reflect the personality of a particular brand. This article analyses the scenario-design organisation of the museum exhibition of the Audi brand, which, during over 100 years in the automotive market, has formed its unique and inimitable image. Here we reveal the design means of exposition construction, where the exhibits are integrated into the economic and social conditions of their existence, forming an idea of important milestones in the history of the twentieth century.

The text introduces the reader to the teaching method of problem setting, its solution by introducing and applying theoretical concepts, conceptual analysis of the selected work and consistent support for the context and the co-text of the work. He chooses examples from the contemporary scene of fine arts and aims to provide a reasoned interpretation of the work. He relies on Goodman's terms of denotation, exemplification, and expression. The metaphorical exemplification, the expression is broken down by the perspective of the cognitive perspectives of the first and third person on the experience and empathic component, relying on the theory of artefiletics. It opens and solves the problem of the relationship between the relative objective dances of the work, its inter subjectively anchored interpretation, and the subjectively perceived experience of the work. Creation is understood as a way of knowing.

The text seeks answers to the questions of what folk inspirations in design mean and whether local identity embedded in traditions can work as a brand able to interpret traditional products and samples and, subsequently, disseminate them by means of strategies used in design. It is a conscious, innovative process that draws creatively on local sources. Today, traditional forms and patterns are naturally present in real craft products as well as kitsch objects created as an expression of the commercialisation of tourism. Attention is also paid to the terms “craft product” and “regional product”, their significance and understanding by local manufacturers, users, self-governing bodies, and activities at the given location. The analysis of this topic is based on field research and the results of an internet questionnaire.

The exterior surface of the coffin was originally decorated with polychrome painted scenes and inscriptions. While the back side of the mummiform part of the coffin consisted explicitly of the inscriptions, its frontal side contained a rich combination of paintings divided into registers and sections filled with inscriptions written in vertical and horizontal bands. The exterior surface of the lid of the coffin is very badly damaged. Some physical parts of the surface on the coffin are completely missing. This is why the damaged parts were restored in modern times. This paper deals with the basic layout and distribution of the registers filled with scenes and texts on the preserved exterior surface of the front and back sides of the coffin. The investigation is based on an analysis of the preserved parts of the original decoration identified on the exterior surface of the coffin. A more detailed description and analysis of the particular registers filled with the paintings and inscriptions as well as the reconstruction of the original decorative programme of the coffin will be discussed and presented in following papers.

Multi-agent system is a system of autonomous, intelligent but resource-bounded agents. Particular agents have to be able to make decisions on their own, based on the activities of other agents and events within the system as well as in its environment. To this end agents make use of their own internal knowledge base which serves them as a memory. In this paper the authors focus on the design and management of such a knowledge base. After a brief description of some classical fundamental approaches to the knowledge base management, they propose an improvement based on the application of statistical methods. The authors focus in particular on the optimization of the process.
