The House on Kuvitchenko Street : Balancing urgency with the timeless essence of heritage
We need to build less. As a soon-to-be architectural graduate, one could have hoped that the architectural discourse would have come to a more uplifting insight, but here we are, and the reason behind it is perhaps even more daunting, climate change. It seems increasingly apparent that building “green” may not be enough, we must build less. As if that was not prodigious enough, there is the paradoxical fact that, due to war and climate change, there is a growing population of displaced people, rising the demand for new housing and it is doing so at an everything ever-accelerating pace. As a final product, the thesis aims to question on how architects should navigate the demand for immediate shelter without sacrificing the preservation of a nation’s identity, delicately balancing urgency with the timeless essence of cultural heritage by proposing an architecture that is meant to last. A house that will stand the test of time in terms of external stresses caused by the climate, variations in the perception of aesthetic allure as well as the identity of the nation, city, and neighborhood.
