Systemic approach and communicativity as design principles in arctic conditions

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №1 (93) March, 2026

The article explores methodological foundations of design for the extreme conditions of the Arctic. Based on an analysis of historical and contemporary practices, the study substantiates the principles of systemic design and communicativity as a methodological pair that ensures the integrity and semantic coherence of design solutions for extreme environments. It is shown that systemic approach provides structural wholeness of the design situation, while communicativity shapes the dynamics of interactions within the “human–object–environment” triad. The proposed methodological pair allows design to be reinterpreted as a mediator of sustainable relationships between humans and the Arctic environment.

THE ROLE OF TERRITORIAL RESOURCE IN TOURIST TRANSPORT DESIGN

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №2 (78) June, 2022

The article considers the concept of "tourism resource of territory" and its influence on the design process. Using the territory of the Republic of Altai as an example, the significance of this term is shown in the context of targeted design and its possible application to designing tourist transport for a particularly extreme territory. In our further research, we will consider the resource as an "engine" in the development of technologies and design.
