A Roof Over One's Head

The time of collective farms, state farms, and... agro-towns. The idea of two-storey rural development was first implemented in the architectural workshop of Giproselmash. And then it was put into practice in the Vladimir region. Architect Georgy Zaborsky explains how agro-towns built in Lithuania, Belarus, and the Moscow region differ from each other, and how the national characteristics of the regions and agricultural production conditions affect rural architecture. Residents of the village are discussing a new development project in the Polenovo state farm in the Tula region.
