Shopping Centres - a Threat to Public Spaces?
PublicationObszary wewnętrznych przestrzeni pieszych w centrach handlowych stają się substytutami śródmiejskich przestrzeni publicznych miast. Mimo ich stylizacji architektonicznej na ulice handlowe nie spełniają takiej samej funkcji jak przestrzenie tradycyjne. Powoduje to zagrożenia związane ze wzrostem znaczenia konsumpcjonizmu i tworzenia zamkniętych przestrzeni prywatnych niedostępnych dla całego społeczeństwa. Mimo to mogą one być elementami...

Architecture of ecumenical spaces in public buildings in the 21st century: Links among the architecture of multi-faith spaces, their names, and the functions they serve in Polish airports
PublicationThis study explores the architecture and arrangement of prayer spaces in public buildings. It examines whether Polish airports have prayers spaces and whether a correlation exists between the name (e.g., “multi-faith space,” “place of prayer,” and “place of focus”) and design. The study is supported by analyses of ecumenical spaces, which have recently been brought into service andwhere a visible symbiosis exists between their...

Evolution of Edges and Porosity of Urban Blue Spaces: A Case Study of Gdańsk
PublicationCurrent waterfront studies focus mainly on a land-based perspective, failing to include the water side. Water is, however, not just a resource for port and industrial purposes and an edge to the waterfront; it is also a feature of the waterfront and the complex relation between water and city. Thus, the article suggests that water-land edges need to be re-contextualised, taking into consideration also their shape, functionality,...

Embracing silence: Creating inclusive spaces for autistic employees
PublicationI concur with Asselineau et al. (2024) that workplace silence profoundly impacts individual and organizational processes. Although they have detailed its significance across different contexts, a vital aspect merits deeper investigation.

Homotopy invariance of the Conley index and local Morse homology in Hilbert spaces
PublicationIn this paper we introduce a new compactness condition — Property-(C) — for flows in (not necessary locally compact) metric spaces. For such flows a Conley type theory can be developed. For example (regular) index pairs always exist for Property-(C) flows and a Conley index can be defined. An important class of flows satisfying the this compactness condition are LS-flows. We apply E-cohomology to index pairs of LS-flows and obtain...
