Summary/Abstract: The author of the article makes an attempt to collocate and consequently show the similarities in the literary texts aimed at the young reader and the artistic projects connected with the area of the ghetto. The scholar notices that both literature and architecture use similar motives in spite of the fact that so diversified culture texts are directed to different age groups. Among common literary and architectural motives are: emptiness, cellar, limbo and confinement. All these are set in Martin Heidegger's philosophy oscillating around the symbolism of the flat, being rooted in tradition, lasting and creating.
