Tradition and innovation in Serbian 21st century architecture - the natural, structural materials’ impact on the human being

The aim of this paper is to illustrate what is happening at present in Serbia through the analysis of traditional Serbian construction, i.e. the technique and the conditions under which it was created. However, as the reality of the subject is quite cruel in today's time, this paper seeks to show the value of the principles on which traditional architecture rests, primarily through the use of natural materials in construction. The reason for this is the inextricable link between man and nature, the very essence of their interconnectedness, as well as the creation of a healthy, aesthetically valuable and quality living space. Based on these analyses, many conceptual solutions will be attached, i.e. the proposal of contemporary interpretation of certain traditional Serbian houses that can meet the needs of modern man and age, where old tradition is implemented in contemporary Serbian architecture.
