Warsaw’s Skyscrapers in Public Awareness

The publication is dedicated to social perception of Warsaw’s skyscrapers, analysed on the basis of the results of extensive surveys and comments from experts who represent various science disciplines – both practitioners and theorists of the city: architects, urbanists, geographers, economists, art historians, urban planners, sociologists, political scientists, anthropologists, lawyers, architectural historians, designers, journalists, and environmental psychologists.

Its subject area includes several spatial and social science subdisciplines: urban geography, spatial management and planning, sociology of space, architecture, and urban planning. What is a significant and substantive distinguishing feature of the book is the fact that it situates the main issue – how Warsaw is built vertically – on three levels of considerations: locational, physiognomic, and functional, as well as in two aspects: objective (cataloguing and analysing skyscrapers in real urban context) and subjective (opinions of the users of the urban space about the high-rise buildings).

Keywords: skyscraper, high-rise, tower block, Warsaw.

PhD Bartosz Barański is a geographer, urban planner and cellist. At the Faculty of Geography and Regional Studies of the University of Warsaw he conducted studies on, among others, the connection between space and music, architectural and musical analogies, soundscape of the city, and the perception of Warsaw's skyscrapers. For his scientific activity he received awards and honours in numerous competitions: of the Mayor of Warsaw, “Polityka” weekly, the Society of Polish Urban Planners, and the Metropolitan Institute in Gdańsk.
