Background:

Working memory (WM) training (WMT) is a popular intervention approach against cognitive decline in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, heterogeneity in WM responsiveness suggests that WMT may not be equally efficient for all patients.

Objective:

The present study aims to evaluate a multivariate model to predict post-intervention verbal WM in patients with PD using a supervised machine learning approach. We test the predictive potential of novel learning parameters derived from the WMT and compare their predictiveness to other more commonly used domains including demographic, clinical, and cognitive data.

Methods:

37 patients with PD (age: 64.09±8.56, 48.6% female, 94.7% Hoehn & Yahr stage 2) participated in a 5-week WMT. Four random forest regression models including 1) cognitive variables only, 2) learning parameters only, 3) both cognitive and learning variables, and 4) the entire set of variables (with additional demographic and clinical data, ‘all’ model), were built to predict immediate and 3-month-follow-up WM.

Result:

The ‘all’ model predicted verbal WM with the lowest root mean square error (RMSE) compared to the other models, at both immediate (RMSE = 0.184; 95% -CI=[0.184;0.185]) and 3-month follow-up (RMSE = 0.216; 95% -CI=[0.215;0.217]). Cognitive baseline parameters were among the most important predictors in the ‘all’ model. The model combining cognitive and learning parameters significantly outperformed the model solely based on cognitive variables.

Conclusion:

Commonly assessed demographic, clinical, and cognitive variables provide robust prediction of response to WMT. Nonetheless, inclusion of training-inherent learning parameters further boosts precision of prediction models which in turn may augment training benefits following cognitive interventions in patients with PD.

Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: Total hip replacement (THR) for Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is still challenging due to specific joint deformities and the high incidence of post-operative complications. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical effect of trochanteric slide osteotomy (TSO) combined with a cementless femoral conical stem in THR for the treatment of Crowe type IV DDH. METHODS: Thirty-one total hip replacements (26 patients) with Crowe type IV DDH were performed using TSO combined with a cementless femoral conical stem. Surgical outcomes were evaluated using leg length discrepancy (LLD), Harris hip score, and post-operative complications. RESULTS: The average pre-operative LLD was 51 mm (range 46–58 mm), decreasing to an average of 10 mm (range 8–12 mm) post-operatively. As a result, the post-operative incidence of the Trendelenburg sign significantly decreased compared with the pre-operative incidence (P< 0.05). Bony union was identified in 26 hips (83.9%), fibrous union in four (12.9%), and non-union in one (3.2%). No acetabular or femoral component loosening, dislocation, or deep infection around the component was found in any of the patients during the follow-up period (27 to 39 months). The average Harris hip score improved from 63.0 ± 3.0 (range 58–69) to 93.3 ± 2.0 (range 91–96). CONCLUSION: TSO combined with a cementless conical stem in THR is an appropriate option for patients with high congenital hip dislocation.

Published: September 2022

OBJECTIVE: To present an optimized examination model by analyzing the risk of disease and image quality according to the combination of the ion chamber of automatic exposure control (AEC) with digital radiography (DR). METHODS: The X-ray quality was analyzed by first calculating the percentage average error (PAE) of DR. After that, when using AEC, the combination of the ion chambers was the same as the left and centre and right, right and centre, left and centre, centre, right, and left, for a total of six. Accordingly, the entrance surface dose (ESD), risk of disease, and image quality were evaluated. ESD was obtained by attaching a semiconductor dosimeter to the L4 level of the lumbar spine, and then irradiating X-rays to dosimeter centre through average and standard deviation of radiation dose. The calculated ESD was input into the PCXMC 2.0 programme to evaluate disease risk caused by radiation. Meanwhile, image quality according to chamber combination was quantified as the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) through Image J. RESULTS: X-ray quality of DR used in the experiment was within the normal range of±10. ESD of six ion chamber combinations was 1.363mGy, 0.964mGy, 0.946mGy, 0.866mGy, 0.748mGy, 0.726mGy for lumbar anteroposterior (AP), and the lumbar lateral values were 1.126mGy, 0.209mGy, 0.830mGy, 0.662mGy, 0.111mGy, and 0.250mGy, respectively. Meanwhile, disease risk analyzed through PCXMC 2.0 was bone marrow, colon, liver, lung, stomach, urinary and other tissue cancer, and disease risk showed a tendency to increase in proportion to ESD. SNR and CNR recorded the lowest values when three chambers were combined and did not show proportionality with dose, while showed the highest values when two chambers were combined. CONCLUSION: In this study, combination of three ion chambers showed the highest disease risk and lowest image quality. Using one ion chamber showed the lowest disease risk, but lower image quality than two ion chambers. Therefore, if considering all above factors, combination of two ion chambers can optimally maintain the disease risk and image quality. Thus, it is considered an optimal X-ray examination parameter.
PROSPECTS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE TYPOLOGY OF THE MODERN UKRAINIAN VILLAGE
Authors: Gnes Ludmila
Published: September 2022

An analysis of performed field and theoretical research on the subject of socio-economic and urban development of the Ukrainian countryside in the XXI century is represented. and related transformations of settlement areas and rural farmstead. The socio-economic preconditions for the emergence and functioning of each type of village and farmstead are presented. 5 main types of rural settlements and estates are distinguished by dominant functional features on the basis of 2 components: rural-landscape and agricultural profile of the villagers:

Type 1: traditional village, traditional village estate

Type 2: village with a focus on recreational and tourist business;

Type 3: village - a suburb at an agricultural enterprise;

Type 4: village - sleeping quarter of the city;

Type 5: diverse village.

These types of villages arose as a result of evolutionary self-organization of settlements. Thus, the diversity of their socio-economic structures is an objectively existing process that should be taken into account in the development of long-term plans for socio-economic development of a region, specific settlement or group of settlements in the development of master plans of villages. Emphasis is placed on the mandatory field pre-project studies of each specific village. Special attention should be paid to the parameters and traditions of spatial organization of the most successful farmsteads from the standpoint of their primary convenience for housekeeping, owners:

- on the planning organization of the farmsteads of the most successful owners

- for the planning of farmsteads that have received additional spatial development resources due to the accession of the territory of the neighboring estate as a result of the termination of the existence the latter. (There are many such cases today) 

- on influences on planning of the farmstead of possible additional arrivals (in the presence of household driveway or at the big width of area, planning of corner estates)

- on a situation when the field adjoins the farmstead, which belongs to the owner.

- on the method of using by the owners of the territories adjacent to the farmstead, which do not belong to anyone and form an additional resource for the spatial development of the estate (wasteland, pasture, sanitary protection strip, hypertrophied roadside, etc.).

The range of optimal areas of each type of farmstead, recommendations on design methods are given. It is emphasized, that attempts to strictly regulate the planning of different types of villages will not be effective. Instead, a more productive approach is when the designer has complete freedom in developing the master plan of the village. Decisions that may contradict the current design norms or generally accepted canons in urban planning are allowed if they are based on the studied folk experience, traditions and arguments obtained in participatory design.
USING SYSTEMS THINKING IN PROVIDING THE ORGANISATION OF INTERNALLY DISPLACED PERSONS LIFE
Authors: Holubenko Vladyslav
Published: September 2022

The full-scale Russian invasion into Ukraine has formed new challenges and task in urban planning and land design. Many people, who have been forced to leave their homes or deprived of there as a result of the war in the territories in which they have lived, have put on the agenda the organization of housing and work for these people in the new territories. Today, these needs are provided by parks and social service objects, and this reduces the value of these territories for their further using after the victory of Ukraine.

This publication presents the basic principles on which a systematic approach can be based for organising living areas (temporary and permanent) for displaced persons and those, who have lost their homes as a result of hostilities. The following factors are analyzed in the article: territorial capacity, resettlement needs, employment, the degree of housing damage, further usіng of territories after victory.

The article describes the existing methods of resettlement for internally displaced persons currently practiced in Ukraine. Their disadvantages are described. An alternatives are proposed. There are description of the method of estimating the real capacity of the territory for accommodation of internally displaced persons with the definition of areas for their temporary and permanent residence. The principles of organization of separate towns for internally displaced persons are offered. The method of resettlement of internally displaced persons is proposed, taking into account the needs to provide social services and job places. 

An algorithm for assessing the needs in the territories to accommodate internally displaced persons and ways of providing them is proposed. It can be used by local governments to optimal organize displaced persons who lives in Ukraine or other European countries.

Authors: Holubchak Kateryna , Obynochna Zoriana
Published: September 2022

The article sheds light on a number of architectural and urban planning principles of the WSUD (Water Sensitive Urban Design) strategy and the Sponge City concept as the effective means of fighting the effects of global climate change. The global practice of flood control in recent years has led to the emergence of a range of urban strategies that anticipate future flood risks and allow them to be managed more effectively in the context of urban transformation and climate change. Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) is a new paradigm of urban development based on interdisciplinary collaboration between experts in water management, architecture, engineering, urban planning and landscape design, aimed at minimizing the hydrological impact of urban development on the environment. This approach considers all components of the urban water cycle and combines the functionality of water resources management with the principles of urban design. The analysis of successful world practice of implementation of city strategies of struggle against consequences of global climate change is carried out and the potential for its realization in Ukraine is revealed.
OPTIMIZATION OF PARAMETERS OF POINT SOURCES OF ENERGY AT SPECIFIC PARAMETERS OF INDIVIDUAL POINTS OF THE ENERGY FIELD
Authors: Kovalov Sergey , Mostovenko Оlexander , Botvinovska Svitlana , Kolgan Anna
Published: September 2022

In most cases, when modeling energy fields, it is impossible to explicitly write the objective function of the energy field, and this greatly complicates the solution of a problem called nonlinear programming [1]. 

One possible way to solve nonlinear programming problems is to transform a mathematical model into a function from a single variable or to organize an iterative process by repeatedly searching for the minimum of a function of a single variable. In this case, you can use the known iterative methods for solving the problem [1]: the method of dichotomy (the method of division in half); the method of "golden section", the Fibonacci method; polynomial approximation method; Newton's method, etc.

Geometric problems of energy field optimization derive from the practical problems of energy conservation in the placement of equipment for heating or cooling of architectural structures, reducing the negative acoustic effects of sound energy in the entertainment halls of public buildings, lighting in interiors and exteriors. Most of these tasks are aimed at minimizing the total power of point energy sources while providing the specified parameters of the energy field.

The target optimization function contains both steel and variable parameters (optimization parameters). The set parameters of the energy field are constant, namely: coordinates of individual points of the field and potentials at these points; the variable parameters are the coordinates of point energy sources and their power. Restrictions are the dimensions of the room or exterior.

Solving this optimization problem involves several steps:

- formation of a mathematical model of the energy field;

- formation of the target optimization function based on a mathematical model;

- choosing a method of mathematical programming to solve the problem.

The mathematical model of the energy field in solving such an optimization problem is written in the form of a system of equations.

WORLD EXPERIENCE OF LANDSCAPE DESIGN OF POST-INDUSTRIAL ENVIRONMENT
Authors: Shevchenko Liudmyla , Novoselchuk Natalia
Published: September 2022

The world experience of revitalization of former industrial territories with introduction of recreational functions is covered. The relevance of this study lies in two important aspects. The first aspect is utilitarian. It comes down to the need to eliminate sources of danger in abandoned industrial areas and their environmental rehabilitation by giving them "new life". The second aspect is aesthetic. It is manifested in the return of attractiveness to the former industrial territories, increasing their artistic and aesthetic characteristics.

The current directions of recovery of the post-industrial environment are presented. They consist in preserving the industrial function through memorialization or technological improvement, partial refunctionalization through reconstruction and preservation of the most favourable characteristics of the object and full refunctionalization by preserving the industrial architecture as a monument and landscaping and landscaping of disturbed areas for their ecological rehabilitation.

On the basis of foreign and domestic experience, examples of the formation of a modern harmonious landscape environment with pronounced individual features and "industrial memory" were identified. The landscape design of the post-industrial environment is most pronounced in those sites that have been transformed into recreational areas. Examples include beautiful Park Zollverein (Essen, Germany, 2001-2012), Landscape Park Duisburg-Nord (Duisburg, Germany, 1994), Park Parco Dora (Turin, Italy, 2011-2015), Park complexes Parc Andre Citroen (Paris, France, 1992) and Parque Fundidora (Monterrey, Mexico, 1988), Amusement Park Wunderland Kalkar (Calcare, Germany), Park Clichy-Batignolles – Martin-Luther- King (Paris, France, 2004-2007), Park Shipyard (Zhongshan, China, 2001) and Cultuurpark Westergasfabriek (Amsterdam, Netherlands, 2006).

Published: September 2022

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease worldwide. In this study, we assess the effects of wet cupping therapy, an ancient therapeutic method, on some inflammatory cytokines believed to impact the inflammatory state of the liver of patients affected by NAFLD. A total of sixteen NAFLD grade II and III patients, diagnosed by abdominal ultrasound, participated in this quasi-experimental study with self-control. The subjects received wet cupping therapy three times over six weeks. We assessed anthropometric and biochemical parameters pre- and post-interventions. Results showed that wet cupping therapy reduced C-reactive protein (CRP) by an average of 50% in 67% of NAFLD patients. The first two wet cupping treatments reduced interleukin-1β, especially the second one for an average of 29% in 67% of patients. The efficacy of wet cupping to modify interleukin-6 was seen in the first wet cupping treatment with an average increase of 182% in 41% of patients. This treatment showed an average reduction of 16% of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in 59% of patients. Wet cupping therapy may be seen as a treatment to reduce the inflammatory state in patients affected by NAFLD when given at proper intervals.
Historical mystery/detective as a literary form of artistic interpretation of history and culture
Authors: Kolesnyk Olena
Published: September 2022

The purpose of the article is to determine specifics of historical, detective, and other retro-genres and their functioning in contemporary literature. The methodology of the work is built on interdisciplinary integration of leading methods of the contemporary Cultural studies, philosophy, and study of art. The culturological hermeneutics is a dominant polymethodological approach. The history-cultural method gives an opportunity to trace genetic links and tendencies of transformations of genres. The comparative analysis allows to distinguish typologically similar elements in different genres and to differentiate various forms that can be convergently alike. The scientific novelty of the work lies in clarification of the correlation of historical, detective, and fantastic genres, defining their specifics in artistic interpretation of history; the term "retro-genres " is introduced. Conclusions. The historical detective and other retro-genres enjoy considerable popularity, as they complement the attractions of the detective with its intrigue, with the possibility of escapist immersion in another epoch, and propose the satisfaction of curiosity as to the past of a city, country and world. There is a positive factor of the possibility of deeper and more emotional cognition of human inheritance, personal and national identity in the globalized world. The contemporary historical detective helps to get not just the general impression, but also solid facts about history, topography and "cultural soul" of city and country. For authors one of the most attractive periods is the second half of ХІХ – beginning of ХХ ct. One of the reasons is that the Neoromantics founded the canons of genres that stay popular to this day, and crated the mythologized image of city. Many of these tendencies are characteristic for the world cultural process, still, there are national trends linked both to the specific historical-cultural context and to the national mentality. For instance, in Ukrainian historical detective there is a noticeable tendency to the in-depth research of momentous historical processes in the times of bifurcation. Sometimes there are ironical rethinking of the past in a post-colonial spirit. Now this genre is flourishing, and its incessant transformations deserve further research.

Directing models of author cinema in the context of intercultural dialogue. Part 2. The creativity of the director-author in the system of international cooperation
Authors: Pogrebnіak Galyna
Published: September 2022

The purpose of the article is to identify problems of intercultural cooperation in the production and distribution of films directed by auteur cinema and to identify scientific guidelines that will contribute to a comprehensive analysis of the phenomenon of Ukrainian auteur cinema in the intercultural space. Research methodology. An analytical method was used to study the topic, which is necessary to study the art history and cultural aspects of the problem. In addition, the researcher used methods of systematization and generalization, which were useful to argue the identity of the phenomenon of directing auteur cinema, its place in modern cultural processes, as well as to determine the objective patterns that characterize auteur cinematographic practices in modern intercultural space. A cross-cultural method was also used, which helped to identify the peculiarities of production and distribution of films directed by auteur films in the system of international cooperation. In turn, the culturological approach led to a generalized socio-cultural orientation of the study of the author's cinema of postmodern and postmodern culture. The scientific novelty of the study is that the problem of intercultural cooperation in the production and distribution of auteur cinema in Ukraine and abroad in the context of the functioning of international support programs has first become the subject of a special study; the content of the concepts "intercultural dialogue", "co-production" as a certain specific integrity and unity of interconnected elements is argued; the works of Ukrainian film directors-authors, whose films were created as international projects, are singled out and characterized; the expediency of using the system method in studying the peculiarities of the international filmmaking process is proved; a comprehensive analysis and features of production and distribution of films by directors-authors in co-production projects in Ukraine and abroad. Conclusions. Acquaintance with the materials presented in the article expands the arsenal of knowledge on the specifics of production and distribution of films of directorial models of auteur cinema within intercultural projects and allows their use in training courses on the theory and history of cinema and directing.

The character of Iryna Molostova in the context of the ukrainian director's cultural space
Authors: Dats Iryna
Published: September 2022

The purpose of the article is to investigate the directorial legacy of Iryna Molostova and her influence on the formation of the Ukrainian cultural and artistic dimension. The specifics of the tasks determined the methodological basis of the search. Comprehensive research combined the following scientific approaches and methods: biographical (to clarify the facts of the biography and creative achievements of the director in chronological order), culturological (to study the uniqueness of the artistic space of the era), comparative (in order to examine the specifics of the embodiment of opera stage works by the director), general system science and historiography. The scientific novelty lies in the analysis of I. Molostova’s artistic method, which allows to create of harmonious temporal representations through the prism of the socio-cultural dimension of Ukraine in the XX century. Conclusions. Having embodied more than a hundred performances on world stages, Iryna Molostova’s artistic heritage plays a special role in the Ukrainian theatre space. Monumentality, the ability to reveal the underlying drama of the work, to create a psychological picture of the roles became the stage embodiment of her desire for endless understanding of the deep meaning and conceptual extra-textual dimension. The bright time of Iryna Molostova’s discoveries and theatrical innovations is vividly represented by her activity in the Kyiv State Academic Opera and Ballet Theater named after T. Shevchenko. Her uncompromising directorial method immediately attracted the attention of the public and was highly praised by the theater community. The culmination of I. Molostova’s directorial discoveries in the 1970s and 1990s, when the artist’s repertoire interests became an expression of the general cultural interests of his time. A characteristic feature of this period was the strengthening of artistic attention to the disclosure of the existential, psychological world of the individual. It is reflected in I. Molostova’s choice of the genre of lyrical and psychological drama. Iryna Molostova’s creative method becomes extremely relevant in light of the growing directorial arbitrariness in modern authorial interpretations.
Key words: Iryna Molostova, director’s school, Ukrainian theatre.

In addition, general scientific research methods were used - theoretical, empirical and empirical-theoretical. Scientific novelty. Scientific research uses a comprehensive study of unique porcelain art samples created on the basis of the Kyiv Experimental Ceramics and Art Factory (KECAF) and highlights the state of study of certain aspects of the impact of these works of art on Ukrainian art culture after the cessation of production. Conclusions. The obtained results allow to testify that: for the first time the phenomenon of domestic porcelain as a catalyst of innovative transformations in modern society has been comprehensively studied; found that the sphere of realization of the cultural potential of Ukrainian porcelain there are private and state collections in which works of art are witnesses of historical and cultural national experience; it was found out that the exhibition activity of museums and galleries promotes intellectual and aesthetic education, forms the national identity of the individual, strengthens the manifestations of original creation and renewal of the national tradition; scientific development of this issue has become the basis for the possibility of further dissemination of this innovative impulse and determine the essence of the impact of creative achievements of the porcelain industry, and in particular KECAF, on the general artistic culture of Ukraine of the beginning of
World music at the crossing point of global and ethnocultural ones
Authors: Bobul Ivan
Published: September 2022

Purpose of Research. The purpose of the research is to investigate the musical direction of world music as a polystylistic musical phenomenon that arose at the intersection of globalization trends and local folklorism from the point of view of a modern cultural phenomenon. Methodology. The research methodology combines the use of a systemic approach, as well as a set of the following methods: art history and cultural, analytical, comparative, historical ones, which are applied to the consideration of the concept of world music in modern musical art. Scientific Novelty. The scientific novelty of the research is the fact that for the first time the phenomenon of the musical direction of world music was investigated from the standpoint of the relationship among the categories of global, local and glocal in their cultural expression. Conclusions. In the conditions of globalisation and glocalisation, when the processes of fragmentation and compression of cultural texts are present in the world of total communication, all cultures are involved into each other, all of them are «hybrid», heterogeneous, differentiated. The musical direction of world music became a natural stage in the development of world culture and art, affecting a number of national cultures. Not being devoid of objective criticism, this direction serves as a source of intercultural communication and mutual enrichment of cultures. The processes of world migration with the music industry develop their own musical structures, technologies, performance contexts, influencing the socio-cultural environments of national societies. However, the resulting new transnational cultural products also affect authentic cultural samples, giving them new meanings as well. In the conditions of modern life, it is impossible to avoid international influences - ideological, stylistic or technological. Modern music is shaped by both global and local trends, where the local is more relational than oppositional. Contemporary music articulates global social, musical and economic aspects that encompass the experience of both national, locally authentic cultures and world musical practices. All these trends connect with the complex network of modern mass cultural communication, giving rise to new cultural and artistic contexts and phenomena.

Yuri Shevchenko's ballet "For two hares": musical and literary sections
Authors: Aksiutina Vladyslava
Published: September 2022

The purpose of the article is to analyze the ballet "For Two Hares" based on a comparison of literature, film, and original music. Methodology. The article is based on a comparative analysis, analysis of the literary source, the musical component of ballet and film. Based on the comparison, the analysis of the main characters and related comic elements of the work of M. Starytsky and the ballet Shevchenko - Litvinov, based on this plot. These are Svirid Petrovich Holokhvasty, Pronya, Galya, Sekleta Pylypivna Limarykha and the Sirkiv couple. The scientific novelty lies in determining the peculiarities of Yuri Shevchenko's original music in the ballet "For Two Hares". The analysis of ballet music was performed for the first time. Conclusions. The comparative analysis of Yu. Shevchenko's ballet and M. Starytsky's comedy allowed us to single out common comic elements: "meeting" with the main character Golokhvasty; the choice of leittembs (clarinet, violin and piano) is associated with the comic nature of Golokhvasty and the emphasis on his external features: thinness and "mannerism", claims to chic and education; the portrait of Golohvasty in the ballet and his appearance (clothes and accessories) corresponds to the image of Golohvasty from the original source; Golohvastoy's weakness for girls; Golohvasty's love for songs and dances; hopak, which appears in both comedy and ballet. Common to comedy and ballet are also the leitmotif of the bells, the romanticization of the scene of the testimony of Golohvasty in the house of Proni. The multifaceted, contrasting image of Sekleta is also vividly represented in both works. The common comic element is defined by the red cap of Sulfur; Sekleta's "fig" gesture, we consider the motif of rumors to be a comic motif, which is conveyed in ballet by all means of expression (musical, choreographic and visual).
Keywords: author's ballet music, literary source "For two hares", comedy by M. Starytsky, comic images.

Published: September 2022

The purpose of the article. The purpose of the study is to identify current and perspective directions in the formation of modern interior design in a rapidly changing trend in a developing society. Research methodology. In the study of current and perspective directions in the formation of modern interiors was applied general scientific research methods, in particular, analysis of literature data, scientific articles, normative documents and design projects on the topic of research and systematization, as well as generalization the results obtained during the study of this topic. The main methodological approach during the study was the analysis of the main principles of formation of a modern interior and identification of current trends and perspective directions of development of modern interior. Scientific novelty. Identifying current directions of artistic and spacious organization of modern interiors, characterizing hybrid styles (combination of styles - modern, classic and ethnic), namely, a minimum of decor and only the most necessary items, emphasis on functionality, Home office (home mini-office) , zoning, not division of premises, introduction of the "smart home" system, use of 3D-panels made of natural materials, adding natural components (living plants) to the interior, popularization of the philosophy of minimalism. Conclusions. Based on the analysis of normative documents, literature sources and design solutions are established, that the current directions in the formation of interior design are focused on the providing of the most comfortable and practical environment. Its elements must provide convenience and comfort for everyday human life in the premises. In doing so, important aspects are such as ecological compatibility of the premises, harmoniousness, functionality and individuality in today's society, rationality is valued, that is a highly functional interior, which often has no extra elements. Modern interior design is characterized by maximum fullness of the interior architectural space with technical devices, special equipment and approach to nature, the inclusion of natural components in the interior. The dominant directions in the design of modern interiors are considered stylistic trends in which the harmonization of the interior architectural environment is happening due to the merging into a single compositional integrity of the objects of filling and decor. At the same time, ideas and trends for interior design are flowing from one year to another, undergoing some changes, now interior design is based on the principles of functionality and restraint with the use of new and hybrid trends.
Key words: modern interior; internal architectural space, principles of interior design; design trends.
