by Radu Andrei; pp.16-23

Abstract
The role of esthetics in society is a vital one, closely related with the good and harmonious development of human civilization. The genuine esthetical works represent sensitive means in searching the truth, without which the existence purpose has no finality.

The present paper work is meant to debate on the esthetical qualities of industrial buildings in the process of the continuity of their existence through rehabilitation and refunctioning.

KEYWORDS: aesthetics, industrial architecture, form, nature.
