A brief showcase of beautiful Ukrainian architectural work

Given recent events I thought this would be a great time to find out about some of the fantastic design and architectural work that has come from some talented Ukrainian people. Here are a few highlights.

The KN-1 house by Balbek

Built just a year ago only 25km from Kyiv, this residential house was designed to blend in with the surrounding environment both through its shape and through the use of natural materials.

The main quarters were positioned parallel to the adjacent Kozynka River.

The interior is designed to reflect the quality of the outside trees in texture and size.

Waterline House by Ryntovt Design

Ryntovt has this quirky element in a lot of their work of incorporating texture, nature photos, and raw materials into their otherwise stark aesthetic. This house is a beautifully clean example of their embrace of nature.

The house was a reconstruction in 2017 and includes the company’s own furniture that they sell as well.

Father’s House by Sergey Makhno Architects

Okay this one appears to be in the render stage and has little information but it’s absolutely gorgeous. Just look at these renders.

Incredible work. I’m crossing my fingers that we get to see more from these talented folks in the future. ❤️🇺🇦
