Authors:   viv Politechnic National University, Department of Architecture and Conservation, R Hnidets , Ya Yasinskyi ,   Lviv Polytechnic National University, Department of Architecture and Conservation
Published: December 2021

The article considers the formative features of the formation of the Ukrainian architectural style (modern style) as a phenomenon that has accumulated both properties characteristic of the style of Western European countries, and national traditions of the formation of folk housing or sacred construction. Ukrainian architectural style (modern style) has become an outstanding phenomenon in the development of domestic and European architectural art. It has absorbed many features that have become common to the pan-European architectural heritage, with its features and differences in the varieties of its expression. During the XIX-early XX centuries, church buildings appear in temple architecture, and they were based on the foundations of a "modern" or "realistic" understanding of shaping. Therefore, there is a focus on national culture and traditions, in an innovative sound. Linearity and decorativeness are manifested in stylistic solutions and detailing of decorative elements and inserts. In Galicia, for the first time in 1894, a building was implemented that embodied the above-mentioned features and principles of the formation of the UAS (UAMS). And its creator was the famous architect and industrialist Ivan Levinsky, professor of Lviv Polytechnic.

Authors:   Lviv Politechnic National University, Department of Design and Fundamentals of Architecture, B Zadorozhny
Published: December 2021

The stained glass art of temples and chapels of the Renaissance period occupies a special place in the fine arts of Lviv. Special attention is drawn to the stained glass windows of Lviv's sacred buildings, which impress with their aesthetics, composition, colours, and artistic expressiveness. In the process of studying stained glass windows in the decoration of Renaissance churches and chapels in Lviv, the manufacturing technology, compositional solution, their colour scheme were analyzed and the main features of their artistic and figurative expression were revealed. Renaissance stained glass windows have not survived, all stained glass windows of Lviv temple buildings were made in the XIX-early XX centuries. The stained glass compositions of the Church of the Assumption are marked by a simple and at the same time refined composition and picturesque colours in light tones in contrast to the Gothic patterns. Ornamental stained glass compositions were used in the interiors of the chapels. Ukrainian artists of monumental art used the latest progressive technologies of making stained glass. Professional foreign artists - connoisseurs of stained glass art - were invited to make stained glass window compositions of Lviv Renaissance temple buildings. All stained glass windows of Lviv's sacred buildings are highly artistic decorative works and belong to Ukrainian artistic heritage.

The article analyzes the development and influences on the formation of film studio architecture. The article reveals to what extent and how the architecture of film studios has changed and what influenced it. The work aims to study and analyze the development and factors of influence on the evolution of the architecture of film studios. The tasks include identifying the periods of formation of architecture, characterizing these periods, and investigating the factors influencing them. Among the main conclusions is that it is appropriate to focus on the third stage of development of the architecture of studio buildings. Each period has its peculiarity of architecture. I = 1 building 1 function, II = spaciousness, III = optimization, avoidance of large squares. From the early stages to the present day, technological factors have the greatest influence. Indeed, with the development of technology (the emergence of sound, colour, etc.), architecture became spatial (the number of necessary pavilions, workshops), and the development of computer technology and graphics led to the development of research without filming pavilions and workshops.
THE CONCEPT OF THE CREATIVE METHOD. FEATURES OF THE ARCHITECT'S CREATIVE METHOD
Authors:   Lviv polytechnic national university, Department of Architecture and Conservation, I Pohranychna
Published: December 2021

The problem of method in architecture, as a subject of research, always appears as a result of the development of artistic life and new aesthetic needs. Each new stage of artistic development reveals the insufficiency of the previous one not because it has become irrational, but because it no longer corresponds to new ideas about social relations and the nature of the human activity. Therefore, the theoretical development of the question is closely related to certain time cross-sections in the evolution of architecture, the consideration of which allows us to build a complete retrospective picture of the development of ideas about the method. The concept of the creative method is very broad and multifaceted. This is not only a set of certain geometric proportions and compositional techniques that are systematically repeated. The creative method is the result of an original cognitive ability to solve tasks using our intellectual search, which is aimed at developing a unique product. For the first time, the concept of an artistic method was formed in the 20–30s of the XIX century. The creative method in architecture and art is defined as a system of principles that control the process of creating a work of art. Artistic methods are designed to reflect the development of reality itself and the development of public consciousness in a specific way – in an aesthetic form. The complexity of the aesthetic characterization of methods lies in the fact that most often their features are considered from the cognitive side outside of the artistic and aesthetic features of art. However, it is from the period of formation of artistic methods that the artist's aesthetic attitude to the world is established. The method is a synthesis of the artist's worldview and the originality of his artistic thinking. The main components of the creative method are: the environment, which is a constant in the creative method of the architect, socio-economic conditions, ideology and worldview of society in a certain historical era, personal characteristics of the architect, culture of project thinking, theoretical foundations of the designer, practical activity of the architect. It is established that the creative method is formed by a) a set of principles of ideological and artistic knowledge and imaginative reproduction of the world; b) a creative approach to solving the set of architectural problems; c) the results of creative activity that is expressive and unique; d) the natural repeatability of architectural techniques that become the architectural rules of the architect; e) a set of certain geometric proportions, compositional techniques and planning features; f) the creation of an architectural object taking into account the influence of the social and cultural development of the architect; g) overcoming the usual techniques and traditions; h) creating own rules.

The article highlights the place of competitive design based on the tasks of real customers in the educational process of students of the Lviv architectural school – at the Department of Architectural Environment Design. An important component of education at the department was competitive futuristic design in the form of international and national student design seminars and competitions. The purpose of this vector is to prepare our students for the strict conditions of the need to comply with regulatory requirements in real design and at the same time teach them to experiment freely and creatively. The more complex the project task, methodology, and requirements for its implementation, and the more restrictions there are in the project, the better and more efficient the imagination should work. Participation of students in educational competitive design based on the tasks of real customers helps to educate and study them not by artisans with limited creative imagination, but by master artists and at the same time highly educated professional engineers. In the competitive projects made under real orders, special ones were those that were developed in 2021, because they were carried out taking into account the problems caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Among them, projects for the best draft proposal of a new architectural solution and expansion of the functions of the Panorama shopping centre in Odesa stand out. These projects are valuable because they were solved not only in one aspect – by offering only typological, spatial, functional or architectural and aesthetic ideas, but by taking them syncretically all together. Teachers of the Department of Architectural Environment Design are convinced that this practice can significantly enrich the educational process because it teaches students to work in teams, use all the special knowledge acquired during their studies in the field of architecture, create without feeling barriers between educational, search, experimental, competitive and real design.
ESTHETIC AND FORM CREATION PROBLEM OF SUMMER SPACES
Authors:   Lviv Polytechnic National University, the Department of Architecture Design and Engineering, A Smaliychuk , K Berkela ,   Lviv Polytechnic National University, A Dzyhalenko ,   Lviv Polytechnic National University
Published: December 2021

A lot of mass media write about the summer spaces aesthetics problem. The articles, notes, posts, blogs and other content are dedicated primarily to the experience of housing exploitation. However, architects, urban planners and other professionals determine the problem rather rarely. Summer spaces, first of all, balconies, loggias and terraces are important as functionally as aesthetically for the creation of comfortable, modern and visually expressive housing. Architects must provide both functional and aesthetic solutions, knowing that homeowners can change their designs. You must use the best domestic and foreign experience to prevent the unwanted changes which are analyzed in this article. Without this, balconies and loggias will be glazed by either the developer, which significantly worsens the aesthetics of the facade or residents, which makes the worst solution. First of all, summer spaces must have the appropriate proportions and engineering supplies. Balconies and loggias must have artificial lighting and electricity supply, they can also be equipped with water supply rain sewer, heating and cooling systems. With maximum equipment, summer spaces can play the role of a summer living room or a multifunctional space. In hot weather, balconies and loggias can even be used as a bedroom, which is important due to global warming. In addition to engineering supply it is necessary to provide some spatial standards: minimum width not less than 1.6 m with a length less than 3.5 m, 1.8 m for 3,5 -4,5 m length, and 2m for more than 4.5m. The area of balconies and loggias should be 4 -12 m2. Summer spaces fencing should not reduce sunlight and daylight in the rooms - so the glass or vertical metal handrails are the best solutions. It is also advisable to combine deaf parts with visually permeable. To implement these proposals, it is necessary to make legislative changes in summer spaces standards. Increasing of housing culture level and informing about the best and sustainable examples is also important. Balconies and loggias in existing housing can be dismantled and replaced with more functional ones through a comprehensive renovation program. The option of individual reconstruction is not appropriate.

The article considers sloping shell structures of rectangular design. The shells are made from orthotropic composite materials, articulated-movable supported on the contour, and weakened with holes. Two mathematical models of deformation of such structures have been developed: taking into account the discrete input of holes and with using the constructive anisotropy method. The shell stability calculation has been carried out, using three different geometries of shells which were made of 4 composite materials. Thus, altogether 12 structures have been investigated. It is shown that with an increase in the number of holes, the results obtained by the constructive anisotropy method coincide with the results obtained with the discrete introduction of holes.

Normative legal acts of the Russian Federation establish that the criteria for assigning control objects to the categories of risk of causing harm should be formed based on the results of the assessment of the risk of causing harm. In the developed countries of the world, as a rule, the distribution of objects of control by risk categories and the substantiation of the frequency of their inspections are carried out depending either on the point risk assessment, or on the number and importance of the violations of mandatory fire safety requirements revealed during the inspection of the object of control. The purpose of this work is to substantiate the frequency of scheduled inspections of the objects of control by the state fire supervision bodies depending on whether the objects of protection belong to a particular category of risk of causing harm. As a criterion for assigning control objects to various categories of risk of causing harm, it is proposed to use the risk of causing harm (damage) as the result of fire in the buildings of various classes of functional fire hazard, which is understood as the product of the probability of fire occurrence, the probability of causing socio-economic harm (damage) as the result of fire and the value terms of socio-economic harm (damage). A mathematical model was developed to determine the risk of causing harm (damage) as the result of a fire in a building, and an assessment of its values for the buildings of various classes of functional fire hazard is given. Distribution of the buildings by categories of risk of causing harm (damage) was carried out depending on the calculated value of the risk of causing harm. It is shown that the distribution of control objects by risk categories significantly depends on the degree of detail in the fire record card of the characteristics of the building in which the fire occurred. The optimal terms for carrying out scheduled inspections of the objects of control are proposed depending on the category of risk to which they are assigned. Proposals are formulated concerning the improvement of the risk-oriented approach in the activities of the state fire supervision bodies of the EMERCOM of Russia.

Efficiency of differentiated complex treatment of patients with PCOS is studied with taking body mass index (BMI) into account. Obtained data show positive effect of combined infertility treatment that included Metformin for insulin resistance correction as menstrual function and ovulation normalization in 58,7 % of patients with PCOS. Treatment with Metformin results in normalization of luteinizing hormone level which has explicit correlation with risk of 1st trimester miscarriages.
The optimal choice of antihypertensive therapy in patients with comorbid diseases: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and essential hypertension. Justification is based on personal experience
Authors: L. V. Rasputina
Published: December 2021

The aim of our study was to evaluate the effectiveness of various schemes of antihypertensive therapy in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and concomitant hypertension. Three different schemes of combined therapy with antihypertensive drugs have been assessed. It has been established that prolonged use of a combination of ACE inhibitors and beta –blockers caused a significant decrease in heart rate, in the number of episodes of painful and silent myocardial ischemia, ventricular extrasystoles of high grade. When combined, ACE inhibitor and diuretic decrease the value of the functional class of heart failure, the positive inotropic effect and the quality of life parameters improve significantly.A combination of ramipril and amlodipine had much better antyremodulating effect, and the pressure in the pulmonary arteries dropped. At the same time, all three therapies equally effectively reduced the level of office pressure.

In order to compare the role of the small and great saphenous veins (SSV and GSV) in the development of acute varicose thrombophlebitis in the lower limbs (AVTLL), 236 patients with thrombotic process in 250 limbs have been examined. The number of frequency of thrombosis among the limbs with reflux both in SSV and in GSV presented the role of these veins at AVTLL most objectively. According to this value, there was no statistically significant difference betweenSSV and GSV (p=0,669): 49,0 % (95 % CI 34,8-63,4 %) versus 45,1 % (95 % CI 31,1-59,7 %). This result showed that traditionally declared higher frequency of thrombosis in GSV among the total number of patients with AVTLL was caused by the more frequent presence of abnormal reflux in this vein solely. The frequency of thrombosis in the tributaries of GSV was significantly higher than the frequency of thrombosis in SSV tributaries, regardless of groups which were compared (all p<0.05). Results of the study indicate that the role of SSV at AVTLL is often underestimated, and a thorough examination of the pathology of its system can improve the treatment effects of the patients with AVTLL.

Published: December 2021

New production approaches, which are based on the autonomous decision-making of elements of such a system, create a highly dynamic environment where the determination of the final position of an element depends on the negotiation process of several members. An emergence is starting to appear in the system, and common planning and scheduling cease to be effective. Therefore, it is necessary to implement material planning systems that can work with accurate forecasts and ensure the transport of material to the negotiated place the correct material, at the right time, in the right quality, the correct quantity and sequence. The article deals precisely with the description of modern information systems, which are able to process information to meet the requirements of future production, which will need to process a vast amount of information from production, results from the bargaining processes of agents, as well as to connect individual sources so that the goal of producing the product is met at the lowest possible production lead time, at the lowest cost and highest quality.

ASEAN's strength stems from its diversity, which generates a plethora of diverse market opportunities. Over the last few decades, Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has risen significantly as a major source of international capital transfer, but the COVID-19 pandemic had a detrimental effect on FDI flows, with the outlook for ASEAN remaining highly unpredictable and contingent on the length of the crisis, the efficacy of policy efforts to encourage investment and to mitigate the economic consequences of the pandemic. This study examines the long-run relationships and short-run dynamic interactions between FDI and its determinants comprising of market size, trade openness, stock market capitalisation and financial development over the period 1970 to 2019. The study applies the dynamic heterogeneous panel estimation techniques of Mean Group (MG), Pooled Mean Group (PMG) and Dynamic Fixed Effects (DFE) to analyse a set of macro panel data of the ASEAN-5 countries, to establish the possible relationships between these variables. An analysis of the results reveals the existence of a long-run causality between FDI and its predictors, indicated by the significant error correction terms for the models tested in this study. There is evidence that market size and stock market capitalization significantly contribute to FDI, with market size being the most dominant contributor. Interestingly, the study also reveals that trade openness and financial development are not significant in determining FDI in the selected countries. The study concludes with an examination of policy implications and also sheds some light on the outlook of FDI in ASEAN-5 post Covid 19. Keywords: foreign direct investment, financial development, pooled mean group, ASEAN-5

Based on the Bounded Rational Theory, ideally, bank credit officers would be influenced by both rational (fundamental factors) and irrational (behavioural factors) in their credit assessment and decision making process. Emphasizing on the irrational decision making perspective, behavioural factors distort the credit decision making process in the banking industry. Despite such evidence, the psychology perspectives in bank lending practice has been given little attention in research and neglected in practice and policy perspectives. This conceptual research investigated the role of irrationality in bank lending decision making. The research design involved three stages. The research started with conceptualization of the bounded rational credit decision framework. This was designed based on review of three theories and related empirical evidence. In the second stage, constructs and their measurement items were sourced from prior work. Thereafter, a questionnaire was developed. In the third stage, the validity of the questionnaire was tested using expert validation, pre-test and pilot-test involving 30 credit officers working in business banking division of a Malaysian bank. Findings from the pilot study confirmed the validity of the questionnaire as an instrument that can be used for future empirical test. This bounded rational credit decision framework can guide further empirical analysis on the role of behavioural factors in lending decision making. The framework provides new insights that are valuable in enhancing the SMEs lending theory, practice, and policy. Keywords: behavioural finance, bounded rational theory, business banking, credit decision, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)
The Attitude of Teachers Towards Intercultural Education in Schools
Authors: Fetti Mora Domnița Florina ,   Babes-Bolyai University Cluj-Napoca
Published: December 2021

Promoting an intercultural perspective in education must rely on a certain vision upon society. Given the special significance in educational approaches, the intercultural approach is a new way of designing and implementing the school curriculum and a new relational attitude among teachers, students and parents. The intercultural perspective opens new avenues for the manifestation of diversity and differences. Intercultural positioning is not reduced to a cumulative presentation of knowledge about the values of others, but it means cultivating attitudes of respect and openness to diversity. This attitude is born through a permanent communication with others and through a careful and optimal decentralization towards one’s own cultural norms. Therefore, the management of the intercultural conflicts made in the context of school learning experiences must be related to the dynamic perspective on the changes that characterize the educational reality in terms of educational innovation. As a consequence, a pertinent analysis of this phenomenon is required, in order to bring the necessary restructuring in order to optimize school activity and prevent conflict management between students belonging to different cultures, being known the fact that the more elaborate the interaction, the more effective and productive it becomes.

En el presente artículo se expondrá y desarrollará un proceso de promoción de la salud con un grupo de adultos en situación de calle, en el marco de un dispositivo comunitario, en el que se incorporó el taller de Musicoterapia en la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, entre los años 2018 y 2019. El “recorrido de la voz” es el camino que inicia en la expresión del padecimiento individual, para encontrarse en el canto colectivo y por último se hace escuchar en intervenciones activas hacia la comunidad. Este recorrido de la voz individual se entrelaza en el canto colectivo y en las canciones para expresar historias, sufrimientos, ideas, dolores y esperanzas. A lo largo del proceso se propusieron diferentes experiencias musicales las cuales fueron signiﬁcativas para el grupo, tales como: la composición de canciones, el canto colectivo de repertorio popular, el canto responsorial y la dirección instrumental mediante señas. Para analizar el proceso del grupo, lo dividimos en tres etapas diferenciadas por los objetivos propuestos y las experiencias musicales signiﬁcativas. En la última de las etapas, se propuso una apertura del grupo hacia la comunidad, y es por ello que tomando el concepto de ampliﬁcación analizamos las transformaciones del grupo, contemplando las individualidades.
Musicoterapia más allá del campo de la Salud
Authors: Kinigsberg Flavia
Published: December 2021

Este artículo surge de cuestionar al campo de la salud como territorio exclusivo del ejercicio de la musicoterapia, campo dado como único e incuestionable en formaciones universitarias y en discursos profesionales. El desarrollo recorre diferentes marcos que amplían horizontes y pueden aportar coherencia a conceptualizaciones y prácticas sociales. Se abordan conceptos como: Desarrollo a escala humana, Buen Vivir (cosmovisión andina que concibe a la comunidad como todo lo que tiene existencia, sin privilegiar las necesidades humanas por sobre las demás, como la vida animal, vegetal, la tierra, el aire, etc.) y Transdisciplina, dentro de la perspectiva de la Complejidad. El escrito parte de preguntas y cierra con nuevos interrogantes, para continuar en diálogo, co-construyendo este pedacito del mundo que habitamos y donde ejercemos como musicoterapeutas comprometidxs1 con las ideas y con las comunidades con las cuales trabajamos.
”Sama porukka tapaa toisiaan hirvijahdissa.” – Yritysjohtajat ortodoksista kulttuuriperinnettä tukemassa
Authors: Karjalainen Mira

Tutkimus tarkastelee suomalaisen yritysmaailman johtajien antamia merkityksiä toiminnalleen ortodoksista kulttuuria tukevassa Valamo-säätiössä, joka toimii likellä Suomen ortodoksista kirkkoa. Tutkimuksen pääaineistoon haastateltiin kymmentä liike-elämän johtajaa ja viittä kulttuurielämän johtajaa ja vaikuttajaa. Tukiaineistona toimii säätiön dokumenteista tehdyt muistiinpanot. Systemaattisen teema-analyysin keinoin analysoitiin aineistossa esiin tulevia tutkittavien asenteita ja merkityksellistämisen tapoja. Näitä merkityksiä löydettiin muun muassa suomalaisuudesta ja karjalaisuudesta, jolloin ortodoksisuus linkittyi kansallistunteeseen, sekä toisaalta monikulttuurisuudesta. Osalle keskeinen merkitys syntyi hengellisyydestä ja henkisyydestä, toisten nähdessä vähemmistöuskonnon tukemisen verkostoitumismahdollisuutena tai strategisena toimintana. Näitä merkityskenttiä tarkasteltiin sekularisaation, uushenkisyyden, nationalismin ja altruismin valossa, sitoen ne uskonnon- ja hyväntekeväisyystutkimuksen keskusteluihin. Merkityksenantojen kattavaksi teemaksi nousi kansallistunne, joka jäsensi merkityskentistä etenkin suomalaisuutta ja Karjalaa, mutta osin myös monikulttuurisuudessa ja hengellisyydessä ilmeni kansallistunteen ulottuvuuksia. Kansallistunnetta korostavista merkityskentistä poiketen verkostoitumisen, brändäyksen ja bisnesmahdollisuuksien merkityskentät nousivat strategisesta ajattelusta, jossa pyrittiin hyvään lopputulokseen ortodoksisen kirkon ja/tai oman (yrityksen) kannalta. Osa merkityksistä oli siten henkilökohtaisia, osa rakenteellisempia.

Debido a la urgencia mundial a causa de la COVID-19, la población ha sufrido cambios en su estilo de vida, provocando en muchas ocasiones un gran impacto emocional. Este estudio se llevó a cabo en una muestra de 765 personas en confinamiento impuesto por el marco de medidas durante el estado de alarma en España a partir del 14 de marzo de 2020. Tiene como objetivo profundizar en el impacto emocional causado por el estado de confinamiento domiciliario. Se analizó la influencia de variables como la extensión del confinamiento domiciliario, la realización de ejercicio físico diario y sacar a pasear al perro en los niveles del estado afectivo (afectividad positiva y negativa), la sintomatología depresiva y la ideación suicida. Los resultados multivariantes mostraron una influencia significativa de la extensión del confinamiento sobre la ideación suicida, y destaca el papel del ejercicio diario como potenciador directo del estado de ánimo positivo y como reductor indirecto de la sintomatología depresiva y la ideación suicida. Estos resultados son de utilidad para la planificación de situaciones futuras de confinamiento y el efecto que tiene en la población, así como para la evaluación de los mecanismos de influencia psicológicos en estados de privación de libertad.

En 2020, se ha advertido de la prevalencia de síntomas de trastorno por estrés post-traumático (TEPT) podría ser alta en personas que han presentado COVID-19. El objetivo de este trabajo fue explorar la prevalencia de síntomas de TEPT en población adulta tras haber iniciado el confinamiento. Participaron dos grupos; uno de 441 y otro de 182 adultos; ambos contestaron un cuestionario en línea elaborado por los autores para valorar la prevalencia de síntomas de TEPT a 2 y 10 meses del inicio del confinamiento. Los resultados revelaron un aumento de síntomas de TEPT en personas con antecedentes de COVID-19 a los 10 meses de haber iniciado el confinamiento. Estos resultados revelaron que con el paso del tiempo de la pandemia el aumento de síntomas de TEPT ha ido en aumento y que son mayores en personas que han presentado la enfermedad. La participación de los profesionales de la salud mental cobrará mayor importancia en los próximos meses y años para la prevención y tratamiento de este trastorno en población que ha presentado COVID-19.

La pandemia por la COVID-19 ha afectado física y mentalmente a las personas. Se realizó una revisión sistemática sobre la influencia de la COVID-19 en la exacerbación e incidencia de los síntomas de Trastorno Obsesivo-Compulsivo (TOC), en pacientes y población general. Los resultados, a partir de 23 artículos de investigación y 1 estudio de caso, se ordenan según población diana y zona geográfica, y se discuten contrastándose con pandemias anteriores. Algunos indican que la COVID-19 ha impactado negativamente la sintomatología de TOC mientras otros apuntan a que no se ha visto afectada y/o ha mejorado. Este tema debería continuar investigándose.
La tipografía como generadora de identidad en la imagen de marca de países europeos en el s.XXI
Authors: Dopico Castro Marcos
Published: December 2021

La identidad corporativa ha sido objeto de importantes cambios en las últimas décadas. Estos cambios han alterado, entre otras cuestiones, el orden establecido de los elementos que de forma compleja definen una identidad. La preferencia por el símbolo o imagotipo, que siempre se había mantenido como eje central de la identidad, ha dado paso desde el inicio del siglo XXI al desarrollo de sistemas gráficos variables y escalables en los cuales han entrado en juego otros elementos identificadores que, si bien ya existían, se han colocado ahora en una posición más destacada. Los tradicionalmente denominados elementos identificadores básicos –nombre, imagotipo, logotipo- han perdido poder de reconocimiento per se en una sociedad global con un gradual incremento en el número de soportes, tecnologías y contextos en los que una marca se ve plasmada. Uno de esos elementos que ha ganado un gran protagonismo es la tipografía. En este contexto ha surgido la tendencia cada vez mayor de la creación de familias tipográficas «personalizadas o customizadas» atendiendo a las necesidades específicas de cada una de las marcas, ocupando un lugar destacado entre estos elementos identificativos. Este artículo pretende analizar a través de casos de estudio cómo esta idea de personalización tipográfica ha sido adoptada especialmente en los últimos diez años en el rediseño de marcas de países del norte de Europa, dentro de las estrategias de reafirmación de identidad propia y vinculación con los elementos territoriales con el objetivo de una mayor proyección exterior desde la diferencia. Los países se han visto en la necesidad de crear marcas singulares para diferenciarse de la competencia en los ámbitos del turismo, la captación de población, recursos e inversiones. En esa estrategia los creadores de marca han apuntado hacia la tipografía personalizada como herramienta diferenciadora.
