Calacatta Viola House

In the picturesque suburbs of Kyiv, a private house has become home to a family of four and their cat.

Nyzhankivskoho Street Hotel

At first glance, this site may seem unremarkable — an enclosed space with a foundation, largely inaccessible due to fencing and chaotic parking. However, its location makes it unique. The plot on Nyzhankivskoho Street in Lviv is one of the few remaining vacant areas in the city’s historic center, making it particularly valuable from an architectural and urban planning perspective. When work began, a foundation for a public building had already been laid. In 2021, the architectural team proposed a concept for this space, carefully considering its characteristics and surroundings. The history of this site is complex and ambiguous. It was once home to a cinema, but later, the land was privatized. Today, vacant plots in Lviv’... More

Riel New Fort

The New Fort residential complex project is part of a strategy to revitalize a former industrial area in Lviv. The project site is located in one of the former production sites of the Soviet Almazinstrument plant.

At that time, a street was laid across the site, and production halls were built instead in the Soviet period. The story of the street gave inspiration for the creation of two new neighborhoods that would form comfortable spaces for different age groups of the neighborhood’s residents. The street itself will be recreated as a pedestrian and bicycle boulevard. The blocks are closed from the outside, and inside th... More
