Gender Approach in Architecture and Design

The article deals with the issue of gender principle in design. The gender principle is presented to modern designers as the basis of modern design. Its manifestation in architecture and design can be viewed from different sides, largely related to the composition in the subject formation: shape, color, texture, texture, material. In addition to the material components, gender in architecture and design is manifested in a special zoning of space, sound. The authors consistently consider the manifestation of the gender factor at various levels of city design: image formation and branding of the city, urban plan and urban structure, urban ensemble and architectural object, subject content of the urban environment, visual communications and dynamic forms in the urban environment.
