Definition:

For the Turin 1911 purpose, we rely on Svitlana's definition (2022):<"National style" in architecture is expressed by means of historicism (appeal in the current work to the forms of the past), because historicism appealed to its own architectural heritage. Thus, the formation and development of national styles chronologically coincides with the processes of nation-building: the development and growth of national identity, the formation of national movements, the creation of independent states, etc. At the same time, architectural forms are given special semantic characteristics that should embody specific national values.>
