ABSTRACT
A research report on the expectations of residents of Lidzbark Warmiński towards residential architecture was produced as part of a joint interdisciplinary didactic project between the Warsaw University of Technology and the University of Warsaw. Students from the Faculty of Applied Social Sciences and Resocialisation (Institute of Applied Social Sciences) at the University of Warsaw, as part of their Sociology of Habitation class taught by Magdalena Łukasiuk, DSc designed and carried out a social survey enabling the students of the Faculty of Architecture of the Warsaw University of Technology to gain an understanding of selected issues related to multi-family housing projects developed in the classes of Ewa Widera, PhD Arch. The aim of the survey was to identify the expectations, beliefs, preferences, practices and, more broadly, the values that are important to the town’s residents, and to elaborate on these so that Architects can tune their designs to them. In the long term, the joint project was intended to provide practical training in cooperation between Sociologists and Architects and to introduce Students from both disciplines to he skills of effective communication and cooperation. Sociologists were keen to show Architects what form sociological knowledge takes and what cognitive benefits it brings to design solutions. The analysis of the survey results is divided into sections containing both the respondents’ expectations of the architecture and urban design of the estate and those related to the residents’ lifestyle and the image of the town in their eyes. The next section of the Report refers specifically to the three locations where the proposed development would be built. The final section of the Report contains the key issues included by the Sociologists as recommendations and issues for reflection.
