Design Features and Methods of Preserving Modernist Objects

The architectonic features of the age of modernism objects are considered on the example of the Kuzbass localities and their division into three historical periods, characterized by a common genesis and nature of architecture, is proposed. The period of early modernism (20–30s of the twentieth century) is conditionally characterized by the “house-communa” concept. The period of mature modernism (40–50s of the twentieth century) is distinguished by the Stalinist Empire style, inherent, first of all, in the city business center. The period of late modernism (60–70s of the twentieth century) is characterized by the typification of buildings, the unification of structures and the rejection of “excesses” in architecture. The problems of modern methodology in the evaluation and methods of the cultural heritage sites maintenance, caused by differences in the approaches of the “engineering” and “architectural” scientific schools, are outlined. The necessity of constant monitoring and maintenance of the cultural heritage sites and, especially, architectural monuments of the Soviet avant-garde belonging to the period of early modernism is shown. Experimental studies of the most characteristic objects for the marked periods have been carried out and their space-planning and architectonic features have been determined. An algorithm of measures for the objects of cultural heritage maintenance of the age of modernism has been developed, including a sequential order of actions. Their grouping is proposed, highlighting the visual and instrumental examination of the object, determining the structural and design diagrams of its elements, assessing its technical condition, developing recommendations for the object maintenance and carrying out repair and restoration work.
