Post Modernism Architecture in Ukraine 1985-1991 by Pavlo Dorohoi
This project is the result of long-term research and fieldwork. I worked alongside architect Evhenia Gubkina to find and document some of the most significant architectural projects from the late socialist period in Ukraine. The designs and constructions that emerged in this period are a postmodern reaction to the social and political changes that the country was experiencing. The colours, textures, and structural elements of these architectural projects reflect the discourses of the time, and faith in the possibility of a socialist and, at the same time, democratic development of society and Ukrainian architecture embedded in the Western European context.
