The properties of modern innovative textile and film materials have been studied to determine the specifics of their use in international practice and the prospects for their application in Russia. The use of advanced textile materials in architectural projects makes it possible to create structures that feature strength, rigidity, weather protection, thermal insulation, and optimal lighting. Textile materials are not inferior to traditional building materials and, in certain cases, even surpass them. The study has shown that innovative textile and film materials such as ETFE, PTFE and PVC are widely used in modern architecture. In Russia, the use of such materials in construction is increasing. Further advances in the use of textile membranes and films in Russia depend on the technological readiness and availability of materials on the market of innovative construction.

Rethinking the traditional applied weaving practices in modern architecture

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №2 (82) June, 2023

The article reviews international architectural experiences, which demonstrate a revival of interest in traditional and archetypally recognizable images in architecture. The approaches to architectural design based on the rethinking of the traditional weaving practices as a new construction system are analyzed and defined.

ARTISTIC METAPHOR AS A REFLECTION ON TRADITIONAL CRAFTS IN MODERN ARCHITECTURE

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №4 (80) December, 2022

The article deals with the issues of postmodern metaphoricity in architecture related to the comprehension of traditional textile crafts, such as lace weaving, carpet making, embroidery, etc. The communicative function of metaphor in architectural practice is noted. The role of traditional textile crafts in the historical development of architecture is investigated. An experience in figurative interpretation of traditional crafts as a way of humanizing architecture by means of metaphorical imagery is presented.
