The future of the countryside is based on a differentiated approach to town and village. The countryside is a special social environment. Architectural restoration is a part of the multidimensional process denoted as countryside restoration. On one side are man's needs of a modern lifestyle, on the other are his interconnections with nature and traditions. The task of architectural restoration is to return to the countryside's architecture its original simplicity and sincerity as well as well as to provoke and raise the feeling of responsibility of man for the state of his environment. The countryside restoration emphasizes process "from below"; it considers the voice of citizens as a very important one and it determines a special position to self-government. In accordance with growth the development is changed in favour of restoration; at first everything old must be utilised and only then can something new be built. Architectural restoration emphasizes the harmony of the whole with each detail, as well as the harmony of rural settlements with the surrounding environment. Each village stands before its own vision of the future that will depend on the ability to clarify its advantages and roots of vitality
