ABSTRACT: In this paper vernacular architecture is explored through the aspect of contemporary aesthetics. The research is
focused on the environmental aesthetics as the part of contemporary aesthetics. Recent development of this aesthetics field, which
considers environment, provide new possibilities to examine the vernacular architecture with the contemporary approach.
The question of context, as the basic parameter of vernacular architecture is considered. The comparative analysis of the elements of
the context is elaborated for chosen representatives of vernacular architecture. The intuitive approach to the process of design and
creation of the buildings of vernacular architecture evidently implement elements of context in a process of building generation as
well as in generation of the environment itself. In effort to follow these principles, vernacular architecture carries logic and harmony
in entity and details, evident aesthetic meaning and need for its expression. The research includes contemporary aesthetic
interpretation of the vernacular architecture context of particular region.
The subject of this research is a single-family house of vernacular architecture. Two regional types of Balkan traditional vernacular
architecture are chosen: Vojvodina and Ohrid traditional house. Elements of context and aesthetics characteristics have been
analyzed, both as a consequence of harmonious relation of the object and the environment.
Keywords: Vernacular architecture, Environmental aesthetics, Context, Traditional Ohrid house, Traditional house in Vojvodina,.
