description On the example of the manor created by Totan Kuzembaev in Latvia, the author develops an analysis of the categories and archetypes fundamental to architecture: space, style, border, substance, time and home. The understanding of the meaning of one’s home is synchronous with the understanding of oneself. In the context of the analysis, the author considers the concept of the border among settled and nomadic peoples, who today exist in close connection. Their metamorphoses are revealed in the understanding of the wall and window, the cult of Heaven, the images of Paradise and Utopia. The ring enclosing the Self and the Other, East and West, is revealed in love as real and true. The author problematizes the search for architectural style, the meaning of home as a way of life in the new millennium, mastering the possibilities of free individuality.
