Doroshenco Contest I Lviv, Ukraine 2020
The main idea for this project is to create something new with the past in mind. The greatest challenge to this project was to deisgn the object utilising contemporary tendencies while simultaneously maintaining the historical integrity of the site.
Seenig as the existing sidewalks of the city are too narrow for the contemporary Lviv, therefore, the project proposal avoids the usage of the pavilion train stop and suggests the integrated analogue instead. The surrounding historical buildings in this area had an internal yard which were an integral part of private space. The intension was to recreate this historical feature by constructing a glass atrium with vegetation planted inside running through each floor up to the roof allowing sun and rain to penetrate through . The generic nature of retail spaces will allow to accommodate shop fronts varying from 20 m sqr. to 700 m sqr. The first level prioritises separate exits to the street from the retail spaces.
Thank you for watching!
