Abstract

German planners trying to effectively solve the problems of the complex housing situation at the beginning of the 20th century, eagerly reached for the ideas of the Austrian planner, Camillo Sittego (1843-1903), who in his designs1 drew attention to architectural scale, proportions and the presence of spatial elements such as squares, green areas, as well as the breadth and the distances of buildings. It has also become important to access recreational, cultural and service facilities as easily as possible. Knurów Settlements were designed according to these principles. Their intensive development took place 1904-1939.<br/><br/>
