State of Study of the Issue of Adaptive Residential Environment

The article highlights the state of research on the issue of adaptive residential environment in scientific circles. The problem concerns the study of adaptation of the residential environment to changes related to human activity, climatic conditions, socio-political challenges, and economic processes. A brief analysis of theoretical and practical research by foreign and domestic scientists is presented. The state of scientific opinion in the field of the formation of an adaptive residential environment made it possible to ascertain the relevance and interest of specialists and the world public in these issues. The formation of a comfortable residential environment, capable of changes and transformations, is in the context of the sustainable development concept. In foreign practice, adaptive living environment has become widespread in the theoretical works of scientists. They invented different theoretical concepts ("supports and infills", "open construction", "growing house” and so on). They were embodied in experimental projects "City of wide spaces", "growing house" in Almer, etc. Most of the domestic scientific works in this field concern the adaptation of residential buildings. They are aimed at studying the architectural and planning aspects of the transformation of their internal space. As a result, questions that had already been raised by previous researchers were clarified. Little-researched and insufficiently worked-out positions have been found that require improvement and deeper intervention. The author has identified issues and materials that have been overlooked by scientists and can become the basis for modern research.
