Essence of functionally – utilitarian transformation of boundary villages of Eastern Sudety

key words: mountain boundary village, use of country building matter

Summary:

Forms of transformations of buildings in boundary villages are object of analysis of commune Lądek Zdrój, administrative district Kłodzko, Lower- Silesian province. First of all, results of direct observation are extremely complicated forms of use. New objects (summer houses) and objects from 1920-30 years, which are used in different manners than original destination, are objects existing on this area. Analyses indicate that summer houses dominate in spatial structure of building of village Orłowiec. There is proof, that current form of village is a hybrid, where on base of village, recreation housing estate is created. Further preferring of such construction (recreation houses) will weaken country tissue.
New recreation (summer) houses are situated not far from Lutynia village. Use of object is autonomous, independent on village. In village system there are many different building constructions (matter), which are used in various ways (e.g. objects abandoned, not at all used). Functioning of village is considered as form of lethargy with trend for successive impoverishment. Activating operations are needed on this area. It is thought , that popularization and spreading of tourist routes (e.g. leading to Borówkowa top, or through Czech Republic village) will be enough in first stage of operations. On one hand such activating operations may stop process of degradation, and on the other hand they may be inspiration for intensification servicing function.
