Description

Starting with Euromaidan, Kyiv has become a symbolic space where East and West meet, and where the future of all of Europe is being decided. The armed conflict in eastern Ukraine and Crimea has gradually escalated into a full-scale war. Key infrastructure and iconic architectural structures of the capital have come under fire.

This architectural guide offers a look at Kyiv through 100 of the most interesting buildings built over the past century. The publication was compiled by Ukrainian architectural researcher Semen Shyrochyn. The selection presents examples of avant-garde residential development, majestic Stalinist palaces, icons of Soviet modernism, and the newest architectural objects of the Independence era.

On over 300 pages of the guide, Kyiv appears not only as a capital, but as an important European cultural center, where the values of freedom and dignity prevail over the cult of power.
