PRE-FAB AND MODULAR CONSTRUCTION FEATURE: Winning designs of an architectural contest that could be the model for rebuilding Ukrainian cities using a low-cost concrete modular unit system have just been announced by the sponsors including WZMHarchitects
Dan O’ReillyWZMH ARCHITECTS - First place winner in the student category was a group of three students attending the Kyiv National University of Construction and Architecture and the University of Water Management and Nature Management.
A nine-member panel comprised of Canadian and Ukrainian architects, plus one from Poland and one from the United States, judged the 46 submissions. “At some point the war will end, the Russians will be booted out, and Ukraine can be rebuilt,” says Radewych, adding “theoretically” the designs could be used for rebuilding other cities in the country.
Between each module would be a 125-millimetre-high “chase” or space where electrical wiring and other utility components would be installed, eliminating the need for space consuming bulkheads, says Radewych.
