Abstract

The article deals with aspects of the problem of perception of space from the point of view of gender, and their influence on the formation of a quality residential environment. The results of sociological research among modern residential consumers are presented, which testify to the existence of differences in requirements for a housing unit and in assessing its qualities by men and women. The requirements for the functional-spatial organization of the home depend more on the person's gender identity than on sex, which is expressed in the tendency towards a certain way and style of life. This, in turn, produces a demand for a wider range of planning types of dwellings that would satisfy a different consumer. It is anticipated that further deepening of the study of a gender perspective in the architectural environment should facilitate the development of the housing units models most desirable for each of these types of consumers. It will substantially enrich the offers on the market.
