This article presents the issue of narrative and anti-narrative in architecture, based on a critical analysis of studies in architecture and narratology. According to the literature review, the link between narrative and built space has been gaining popularity in recent years. It is interdisciplinary in nature and allows the linking of architectural forms and spatial solutions with the perception of space both directly and through the means of traditional and social media. The research gap, on the other hand, is the transfer of the notion of anti-narrative from the field of literature to architecture - even though it is present in contemporary literary studies, and narrative strategies such as silence, minimalism, hybridity, syncretism, achronology and anti-finality are also identified and characterised in contemporary architecture. The article focuses on Polish studies of the topic of narrative in architecture and anti-narrative in literary studies. It refers to narrative studies by Wojciech Bonenberg and Anna Maria Wierzbicka, as well as polemical theses by Andrzej Niezabitowski. It aims to outline the problem for further discussion. Due to the preliminary nature of the study, it does not characterize anti-narrative architectural objects in detail, but formulates a typology of anti-narrative measures.
