Principle of independence

The functional activity of the occupants depends to a lesser extent on the system of coordinates in which the enclosing walls in the apartments are built. To a greater extent, the arrangement of equipment and furniture depends on it and the smaller the apartment, the greater this dependence. Indeed, the whole industry of household appliances, furniture, built-in equipment is oriented on the Cartesian coordinate system, so the simplest way to equip apartments is their placement with reference to the rooms which are also made in Cartesian coordinates. This is especially important for apartments with a small area. But the situation changes for large areas. The larger the apartment, the less this dependence is.

If possible, everyone strives to get apartments with a free layout and take the division of apartments into rooms into their own hands. But not everyone can afford it, and most often the choice is determined by the number of rooms and rooms and their total area. Such apartments already have a stable and invariable floor plan. Mostly these are apartments in large-panel buildings – the main most common low-cost housing.

As the composition of the family changes or increases without increasing the area of the apartments, their furnishing becomes more complicated. Availability of stable principles of equipment installation becomes important and Cartesian coordinates contribute to this. This is especially noticeable when the total housing area per person is not large. If this problem is difficult to solve, then in such a situation simply change the smaller apartment to a larger one. Then, the difficulty of dense arrangement of equipment in the apartment decreases. The amount of space in the apartment and the number of rooms becomes important. And since it is so, the dependence on the system of coordinates in which the building envelopes are built decreases. Symbiosis is possible, when a combination of Cartesian coordinate system elements is introduced into the planning structure of another coordinate system, thus forming a local coordinate system.

Functional activities of people in relation to the coordinate system of structures of residential modules is largely independent and the form of a useful area can be very diverse. This principle is applicable and valid, as indicated, not only for residential buildings, but also for most public buildings, and for them this independence is even more pronounced.

The principle of independence indicates that housing can be of many different forms, and this is confirmed by the practice of construction. Houses with unusual layouts and appearance are created. This is especially common in low-rise construction.

A striking example of the principle of independence in housing construction is built in Chicago (USA) two buildings «Marina City». Houses built as a closed complex, with the possibility of exit from it by car, river and air, are round in plan with trapezoidal apartments. There are virtually no rectangular shapes in the apartments, and the general coordinate system of the buildings is polar. Large enough areas meet all the requirements of the family life and no one has any doubts about their performance, although the Cartesian coordinate system has been practically abandoned. At the same time it is a unique monolithic building built according to the market canons and practically can not be replicated. Although it is a residential complex, it should be categorized as elite housing with exclusive architecture and the cost of construction is not fundamentally important.
