Lithuanian folk architecture research as a repository for the study of urban form

ENDespite the increasingly global orientation of urban morphology, there still remain countries whose achievements in the field of urban form research are underrepresented. Although the attempts to study settlement form in Lithuania were rather early, the second half of the 20th century was the most productive period. The article presents context, process and findings of the folk architecture research, which became the nurturing environment for the establishment of contemporary urban form studies in Lithuania. Keywords: folk architecture, Lithuania, typology of settlements, urban form. [From the publication]
