This year "Archstoyanie" invites the participants to reflect on the topic "How to live?" and develop your own version of the minimum space for life (MPL).

Art group "Alycha" at the festival site will build "Headquarters": both a residential building and a mini-ramp for skateboarding in the bosom of nature.
Architectural bureau "Khvoya" offers as PJ "House with a chandelier" - a building, the key element of which will be an elegant lamp. The chandelier illuminates both the interior space and the area around the house, it can be seen from the street. The rest of the room is securely hidden from prying eyes by walls.
"Kennel" by Victoria Chupakhina will become a symbol of unity (or at least an attempt at rapprochement) between man and animal. Both the one and the other will be able to hide from external stimuli in a kennel house made of branches and dog hair
JS "Rozhdestvenka" is going to give out shovels and other equipment for planting trees to everyone. The result should be a small garden. And Krasnoyarsk artist Alexey Martins within the framework of his project "Be together" offers to gather the participants of the festival around the bonfires.

Artist Sergey Katran as part of the performance "Children of geniuses rest in nature" decided to repeat the experiment of Diogenes. Residents of cramped apartments who have escaped into nature will be offered to imprison themselves in barrels. In contrast to the textbook symbol of voluntary isolation, round holes are cut in the Katran barrels, which makes the exposed part of the body a sensitive receptor.
