REVITALIZING PLOTS

City park with shopping mall & residences

Kyiv, Ukraine

For a client in Kyiv (Ukraine), we were asked to design a master plan for a number of undesignated industrial sites. From this the idea arose to create a city park with housing and a “shopping mall.

The houses in surrounding areas have few amenities such as parks, restaurants and stores. Our goal is to bring back the human scale. We are converting this industrial area into a sustainable and liveable living and working environment.

Some of the existing buildings will be preserved. At street level there will be a large city square with lots of greenery. At the edges of the square we will create entrances to stores, restaurants and offices.

Above this we are developing a city park with residential blocks with which we will attract investors who will co-finance the entire project.

To make the area even more attractive, we will move cars as much as possible to underground parking facilities.
