The PROSTONEBA Architecture Festival opened with a discussion on socially responsible business. Speaking on behalf of the Ukrainian Chamber of Architects Foundation, she highlighted the results of their work and the importance of the architectural community coming together to achieve major goals in supporting the Armed Forces!
The Creator City Residential Complex is the first in Ukraine without air conditioning units on its facades. How can we preserve the building’s aesthetic appearance and avoid visual clutter? And at the same time, create a comfortable environment inside the building? Let’s figure it out together…
The secret lies in a unique central air conditioning system. It completely eliminates the need to install outdoor air conditioning units on the facades. Instead, they will be located on the building’s roof and in hidden technical areas (passageways and parking lots).
This system demonstrates significantly higher energy efficiency than conventional systems. Residents can use it simultaneously for both cooling and heating, and adjust the settings independently of their neighbors.
The design of the indoor units varies to suit different functional interior solutions. During the design phase, we conducted thorough noise level simulations and guarantee that the residential complex will be quiet and comfortable.
Maksym Myatko shared his thoughts and suggestions during a discussion with experts on the importance of implementing BIM technologies in Ukraine. Today, BIM is the standard for modern design.
At AIMM, we use the BIM system, which allows us to integrate into the international paradigm. It is a tool for accurate budget planning and clear deadlines, which is critically important for developers and public projects.
We design complex technological facilities, and one such project is the Albion river-sea port. This is an innovative port hub in the Izmail district. Our goal is to create a new level of logistics where efficiency is combined with comfort for people.
The design work was carried out on a complex site with existing infrastructure. Our solution was to create a high-tech port that includes three grain terminals, storage tanks for oil and fuel, and a key railway junction.
The heart of the port is a multifunctional administrative building. It serves as the main management center for the complex, combining an administrative wing, a hotel, a dining hall, and a full-scale fitness and wellness center with a swimming pool and a gym. We have also included a pedestrian bridge connecting to the terminals.
The site has been landscaped with modern amenities, including recreational areas, greenery, and artificial ponds.
The Confederation of Builders of Ukraine has recognized the Dnipro Island residential complex as Ukraine’s most ambitious architectural project of 2025 as part of the iBuild National Award.
This award confirms that innovative architecture, tailored to people’s needs and meeting the highest standards of comfort, is in high demand in society.
We continue to move forward and maintain our leadership position by creating architecture that changes cities for the better.

The development of the architectural industry today is impossible without professional unity and open dialogue.
The Architecture Meetup hosted by @pragmatika.media served as a space for professional discussion and the search for shared goals.
During the panel “Architecture on the Edge,” participants agreed that today’s market needs not an increase in construction volume, but well-considered decisions with long-term value. The discussion on renovation focused on a practical question: how to work with historic buildings without imitation or loss of authenticity.
Separately, BIM was discussed as a tool for transparency—for working with investors, international partners, and complex projects.
This dialogue demonstrated that today we need not just a professional community, but a shared vision of the future—one that is conscious and capable of real transformations, of which you and I are a part.

“Vertical of Time” is the title of the retrospective exhibition that Diana Popova and I opened as part of my curatorial project, Kyiv Art School!
Petro Bevza, I want to thank you for your wonderful art—it inspires and gives strength!
I sincerely invite everyone to visit the Museum of Kyiv. On the 3rd floor, you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to immerse yourself in and feel the warmth and power of contemporary Ukrainian art!
You can (and should) visit the exhibition until April 14; stay tuned for a guided tour with the artist, which I’ll announce in advance!
P.S. Each of you can contribute to this noble cause—bringing our victory closer—by purchasing a limited-edition signed print (only 100 copies) by the artist. See the photo. Thank you to Konstantin Kozhemyakaand ArtHuss Publishing.
The proceeds will be used to purchase drones for the “Bureviy” brigade. This is how we continue to support Anna Iskierdo and her initiative—“Architects’ Wings”!!!
Anna Iskierdo, co-founder and creative director of AIMM, will speak at the Recovery Construction Forum Ukraine, which will take place on April 11, 2024, at the Parkovy Exhibition and Convention Center!
She will participate in the panel discussion “Reconstruction Through the Eyes of Architects: Proposals and Case Studies for Implementation.”
“Right now, the main task for the community is to preserve architects and support the military. After Victory, we will determine for whom and what needs to be rebuilt,” notes Anna Iskierdo.
We will discuss this and more during the Recovery Construction Forum Ukraine (RCF Ukraine).
Note that RCF Ukraine is a forum that brings together government officials and the construction community to discuss current industry challenges and effectively coordinate efforts to rebuild Ukraine.
Join the discussion on pressing issues that will make reconstruction faster, higher-quality, and more effective!
Your participation is a contribution to the reconstruction of affected communities, to which a portion of the funds raised will be allocated.
Previously, the CBU, together with its partners, had already transferred over 1 million hryvnias to the United24 Fund for the “Reconstruction of Ukraine” initiative. Additionally, certificates for medical equipment worth over 1.5 million hryvnias were provided to communities.
