Eco Park promotes sustainable development and innovation in construction. At the same time, it is a public space where it is pleasant to spend time in nature with the whole family, with friends, or alone.
(more…)KLO Flagship Gas Station Facade
Going straight to the centre of Kyiv from the Boryspil international airport along Bazhan Avenue you will unmistakably hit the flagship gas station KLO, where Dmytro Aranchii Architects designed the shell of the main facade and interior design.
(more…)Futu Life. Dnipro Cliffs 2.0 Sustainable city on the river Dnipro
Dnipro Cliffs 2.0 is a continuation and reincarnation of the idea of a permanent settlement on the bank of the Dnipro, but on a larger scale. Futu Life is a city built around the idea of an it-cluster. It also combines the functions of culture, health and recreation
(more…)MakeWaterPureAgain
Once, Prypiat was able to prevent a technogenic disaster of the Dnipro river and, as a result, drinking water for most Ukrainians. Slavutych is a reincarnated Prypiat, bearing the alternative name of the Dnipro itself, which is quite symbolic.
TheyAreNotThere | YikhTamNema. Memorial to ATO fallen warriors in Zhytomyr
The main project idea is integration the life of the city into the memorial creating a public and barrier-free space for people. The monument doesn’t have a high-level accent. It deepens two meters under the ground level and rises above it equally at two meters level. Thus, the standard of the typical monument of the Soviet era that has been popularised in Ukraine is rejected. The crater created by the memorial symbolises the scar on the city body and reflects the footprint that of Ukraine’s territory invasion.

Design of a modular station for the first colonizers of the Moon’s surface.
(more…)M17 Contemporary Art Center Rethinking
The redesign of the M17 CAC consisted first of all in changing the envelope, the skin of the building, and giving a new visual representation to the already recognizable brand that would link it to the tradition of the Ukrainian avant-garde.
(more…)Sustainable Continuity. Implementation
Sales office of Poetica residential block by Dmytro Aranchii Architects was implemented in 2018. Project makes an injection into city skin of public space despite its commercial function.
(more…)Dnipro Cliffs
Dnipro Cliffs is a project of eco village on the right bank of Dnipro river at Shevchenko places with stunning panoramas of 10km water surface. 5 houses architecture evolves according to landscape features. Dwelling integrates into the topography and designed based on sustainability, energy efficiency and cradle-to-cradle concepts.
Sustainable Continuity
Sales office of Poetica residential block. The building demonstrates sustainable design approaches using cradle-to-cradle concept’s materials lifecycle and providing modularity and mobile parameters due to geo-pile basements and reassemble transportable frame, green roof, that protects from overheating in summer, decreases CO2 level and city canalization load and makes natural surroundings for visitors and pedestrians. Thus, project brings real values that matter to developer as well.
Lanzarote Music Tank
Lanzarote Music Tank is a project to rehabilitate an old reservoir in the Canary Islands. The goal of the project is to add new functions and use the old building to vitalize the life of a depressive district of a Spanish island.
(more…)Ubiquitous Interactive Installation
ubIQuitos is a concept kinematic interactive installation. It is a 3d mirror for pedestrians and cars using kinematic and color changes to reflect local activities.
cardioTower. old factory pipe rethinking for unit city
cardioTower aims to provide healthy environment for the unit city. Its main idea is based on the mykola amosov heart training method, which starts from small loads and anticipates enhanced blood transportation.
Signature Garden Kyiv
Signature Garden on Mechnykova street is a space on the roof of shopping mall between towers of Signature residential complex. A yard of 6000 sq m is simultaneously a green roof and provides various functions for residents as summer pond; intellectual fountain zone with “God mode”(in which water smoothly gives way to man); pavilion that faces Parus business center, zone with projections that interact with people; kids playground; mobile benches and trees in tubs for personal shadow creation; a cave, in which performances will take place, and will be also seen from restaurant; three viewing platforms; space for art with permanent and temporary exhibitions. Extensive landscaping is an important stroke in Signature garden.
Air Islands. London Shoreditch Station
Air Island proposal for old London Overground Shoreditch Station represents vision of saving existing building and introduction of particular fashion design function to connect authentic Brick Lane and fashionable Shoreditch. While exhibitions, lectures and retail by young designers are happening within the old structure, new intervention appears outside, Air Islands provide ability to walk and rest above the old station / new fashion design hub.
noMad. Architectural Behaviourial Modular System. AADRL
noMad project designed in AA DRL by Dmytro Aranchii, Paul Bart, Flavia Santos and Yuqiu Jiang during 16 month research 2013-2015. Work is based on modular robotic ideology and seeks for its appliance in architecture. noMad is the architectural behavioral assembly system that has attributes of autonomy, mobility, ability to communicate and make decisions. This research is not about one finite result but rather uncountable amount of variations, about approach how to create any space and adopt it to changing conditions without influence from outside and control by human.
Ukraine Pavilion Expo 2015 Milan
Project of Ukraine Pavilion at Milan Expo 2015. Recently Ukraine has been ignoring the question of a worthily representation of of the national pavilion at the World Expo, so our proposal is an attempt to break the trend and represent the state in terms of the openness of social and economic development, which is reflected in construction sensitivity (adaptivity) to the environment and visitors. Being open to changes and be transparent in its` implementation – is the slogan with which we support our vision, offering Ukraine Pavilion architecture, while emphasizing on the universality of exposition.
Ukrainian Pavilion Expo 2015
Pavilion prototype for the Milan World Expo 2015 is called to demonstrate benefits of modular construction, flexible computational design methods and the limitless possibilities of artificial stone.
World EXPO 2010 in Shanghai, where, in our opinion, Ukraine has not shown 20 million visitors a worthy attitude to the exhibition served as a background for the pavilion development. Prior to the proposal of a full scale pavilion the reduced prototype with an area of 15 m2 and volume of approximately 30 m3 was designed.
AA DRL Cellular Automata Workshop. Computational Architecture
Computational / parametric architecture stays very close to contemporary theory of algorithms. We have already implemented cellular automata and particularly game of life in architectural project Fashion Design Museum in Kyiv, 2009. Current project designed within the Architectural Association (AADRL) was aimed to go deeply into cellular automata theory and practice and to define the strategies of control the self-organizing system and to find the directions of usage in architectural design. Implementation of the algorithm for space tessellated into truncated octahedrons instead of usual cubic voxels also became a contribution into cellular automata research.
