Pro-social living environment in the context of the reconstruction of low-rise housing in Ukraine after war damage

Summary/Abstract: The sense of belonging and integration are complex psychological phenomena that are crucial for the health and well-beingof individuals as well as for the stability and harmony of societies. Architecture, through its physical and symbolic elements,influences the spatial experiences of individuals and social groups, and consequently, can affect their sense of belonging andintegration. A key element in community building is the engagement of its members in the process of reconstruction andthe shaping of space, which can contribute to finding the appropriate spatial form and function of the newly shaped housingenvironment.Analysis of theoretical works and examples of pro-social housing projects presented in the article allows us to approach po-ssible directions for the reconstruction of war-damaged areas. A properly designed architectural space can stimulate positiveinteractions among people, strengthen their sense of community, and influence the development of identity and belongingin the local community. The authors emphasise the role of the community in shaping such housing estates and the benefitsfor residents and the natural environment, including the application of the Segal method.
