Embodied Urban Memory
B a c k g r o u n d . This article explores contemporary Ukrainian urban experience through the frameworks of embodied aesthetics, phenomenology, and memory studies, conceptualizing walking as both a diagnostic and an aesthetic practice.

We determined the key methods of cultural research of the vernacular landscape: representational …

Within the definition of vernacular culture (M. Lantis, A. Markusen, J. Carr and L. Servon), characteristics such as the combination of traditional culture and modern aspects of cultural identity in the non-professional dimension…

The vernacular design is understood within the complex cultural environment, where different traditions and cultural identities coexist. The terms "vernacular life", …
