The article is based on the results of a survey carried out among students of architecture faculties in several countries, which examined the students’ knowledge of shaping the housing environment in such a way as to enable them to fulfil two basic and, at the same time, seemingly mutually exclusive psychological needs of a person: a sense of security and a sense of freedom. In examining these issues, particular emphasis was placed on the possibility of creating such methods of architectural education that would make students - future engineers - aware of the necessity to understand the needs of the human psyche, and provide an opportunity to develop design skills to create a space that meets those needs. This kind of architectural education is part of the search for an answer to an important question today: how in the contemporary world, in a constantly transformed environment, can a person retain their own identity, find a place to live, find their own existential space?
