"There are 25 thousand children in Ukraine without parents, many of them were orphaned during the war. Providing security and a home for orphans is a huge challenge for war-torn Ukraine, and Estonia is ready to help. The competition gave us an excellent opportunity, in cooperation with Estonian and Ukrainian architects, to create a new standard project of a family house that is suitable for construction throughout Ukraine, and also meets the standards of the European Union. Thus, we support the reconstruction of Ukraine and its desire to join the European Union, "explained Andrea Kivi, Acting Director General of ESTDEV.
"Open architectural competitions are very important for reconstruction works in Ukraine, as this is the best way to create the highest quality environment for living, as well as an effective way to prevent corruption," said Andro Mend, president of the Estonian Union of Architects.
