NERIJUS MILERIUS - Architecture as a tool to synchronize daily rhythm of the city
THE CITY. Breakpoints
The talk will present how different rhythms of life of citizens can be synchronized with a help of architectural implements. The common models established in the Soviet space were significant in synchronizing life of totally different cities: Vilnius, Tallinn or Tbilisi.
