The article considers socio-architecture (healing architecture) and its relevance in the modern world. The researchers actualizing this direction in the design activity are noted. The definition and basic principles implemented in the architectural and spatial environment. Described examples of buildings and structures built from the perspective of socioarchitecture. The design solutions of the thesis work "Therapeutic and Rehabilitation Clinical Center in the Altai Krai" are verified for their compliance with the principles of healing architecture. The methods of socio-architecture that have appeared as well as those incompletely applied or not realized are revealed. The most successful ones are outlined in terms of cost-effectiveness and ease of implementation in the spatial environment and architecture. The analysis of the design of the treatment and rehabilitation center allows us to make some recommendations for introducing the principles of socio-architecture in institutions of medical and rehabilitation purpose, as part of a series of experiments in its realization.
