Objective
Create an education complex that can be built in several phases and run several operators of school programs with their administrations.
Educational complex, Kyiv
Obolon International School
Here is the harmony of diversity from white futurism to rounded glazing tapes, parabolic arches of school buildings, a green “curtain wall” of the school theater, glass waves along the main staircase overlooking the central square and the warm Iberian sand volume of the kindergarten with mosaic inlay. The town theme, consisting of unique, but united by a common style and composition of buildings, has become decisive in searching for an architectural vision.

-
HumanThis project implements the concept of aesthetic education when architecture becomes part of the program and affects the formation of personality. The space saturated with images gently teaches proportions, taste, archetypal forms, as well as the ability to appreciate and respect other people's creativity.
-
BusinessThe educational complex consists of a kindergarten and two independent schools, united by a common building and yard. This model allows the client to divide the construction into several phases and launch the schools as business projects separately.
-
UrbanThe school building is located between the Children's Academy of Arts and the Institute of Hydrobiology. The architectural view of the building as well as the configuration of the windows, the total volumes and proportions do not contrast, but in harmony with the surrounding buildings. The project also provides for the landscaping of the site outside the school, which faces the avenue.
