This spring I was really glad to give a talk about Soviet Microrayons for the Spring semester Program of Architectural Association, many thanks to Naiara Vegara for the invitation. I am very grateful for a very nice discussion I had with students on transformation of meaning of the efficiency in architecture and forgotten power of building codes. Also I was very please to see the projects guys developed in the end of their program, surprisingly instead of focusing on the usual problem-solving approach, they did a quite precise research about Microrayons and postwar technology of industrial production of space and on the basis of this made an attempt to rethink this technology in the context of the contemporary city.
