This course focuses on issues of urbanity and habitation through historical examination, within the context of ideological, social, and economic structures. Parallel issues of spatial configuration, function, and typological development of architectural syntax are explored. We discuss urban housing, its anthropogenic-artificial environment, and its association with the natural environment and analyze the standards, stereotypes, social models, and ideological frameworks that prevail in every age. We also study the urban phenomenon of the apartment building and we consider and present the features of exemplary houses and apartment buildings that stand as paradigms in the international and in Greek architecture.
