Adam’s Forest House is an private house with a total area of 181.35 m2 (about 2 000 ft2), designed on a picturesque area with perennial existing pines a few kilometres from Kiev. The project was created by Golub Architects for a family with two children.
The Masnavi office was named a “warship” during its creation.
It is located in a building that rises like a ship over a steep shore and water surface and is looking on the left bank of Kyiv and the Dnipro river, like from the captain’s cabin.
Space in 520m² is divided into zones: design, financial, analytical departments, private offices, and meeting rooms. Corridors combine work areas with common open spaces. The offices remind work cabins of the crew, with different lighting scenes. The glass walls of some offices pass the daylight into corridors.
This project was developed for the Ukrainian brand the COAT by Katya Silchenko. The women’s ready-to-wear brand was founded by Kateryna Silchenko in 2014. The designer draws inspiration from women around, who are strong, passionate, and subtle at the same time.
Emily Event Hall is the largest and probably the most modernized event hall in Western Ukraine, designed for 1500 guests. Multipurpose space is suited for big shows, concerts, festivals, business conferences, corporate and personal events.
Crowd events are always about emotions. We aimed to create a design that works like a magnifying glass for them. We built an impressive installation to maximize the emotions of each event, taking place in Emily Event Hall and making memories that will last a lifetime. The wall with the waved shape that goes along the whole hall and works as a media screen is 1500 m2 in size.
In the early fall of 2022, the team of Bezmirno architectural studio completed work on the design project implementation for the apartment in the Tetris Hall residential complex in Kyiv.
Our main aim was to create an elegant and cozy space by combining warm colors with natural materials.
Each project reflects the energy and nature of the homeowner. As a rule, we receive a number of restrictions and requests from the client, which gives an impetus to our work. This interior, however, was designed for a rental apartment, so it didn’t have any particular image. That’s why we decided to design a space where we would like to live ourselves.
We barely had time to take a picture before February 24 and the war in Ukraine came.
The gelateria had been open in Odessa for a couple of weeks and it was closed and the windows were boarded up. We didn’t know for a long time if it would ever reopen.
“ТАЮ” translates from Ukrainian as “I’m melting,” and the menu only includes ice cream and juices.
We were looking for a simple solution, simple materials, and one clear idea that would create and unite the whole interior.
The authors of this interior as well as the brand identities of each of the cafes of the TAKAVA chain are the famous Ukrainian designers, twin brothers native of Kherson, Volodymyr and Oleksandr Yudin. Most Ukrainians know them also as co-hosts of the Ukrainian version of the TV show “Hell’s Kitchen”. In 2000, they opened their studio in Kyiv, working throughout Ukraine, Europe and the United States. They specialize in HoReCa, retail and public places. They take care of the appearance of each project from scratch and turnkey: name, slogan, logo, corporate colors, staff clothing design, menu, takeaway and interior design!
‘Chornobyl. Journey’ is a multimedia exhibition dedicated to the 35th anniversary of the Chornobyl nuclear power plant disaster. The project’s goal was to form a new perspective on the Chornobyl tragedy: to help people reevaluate history and prompt a discussion about the future of the Exclusion Zone.
The organizers aspired to tell the story of Chornobyl in a contemporary manner and transport the audience into the epicenter of the events using immersive technology such as VR.
The three new stations (Teatralna, Tsentralna and Muzeina) designed by Zaha Hadid Architects will connect the residents, businesses, cultural and academic institutions in Dnipro’s eastern districts with the city centre and the Dnipro-Holovnyi railway terminus.
Reducing traffic congestion in central Dnipro, the metro line extension will also enable the parks, beaches and recreational facilities on the banks of the Dnipro River in the east of the city to be easily accessed from the city centre.
