EN The aim of this paper is to discuss the acomplishments of contemporary design, focusing on its flexibilible and adaptative features – meeting demands of migrating, mobile societies. With the expansion and popularization of information and communication technologies in the last decades, traditional space-use patterns evolved. Divisions and borders between work and leisure, public and private slowly loose their importance. Users often seek “multi-use”, “multi-task” and “open space” solutions. Research is based on projects developed at the Faculty of Architecture, Poznan University of Technology, under supervision of the Author.
