RE:Ukraine Housing project
RE:Ukraine Housing project aims to maintain a dignified lifestyle for people who have been forced to leave their homes. We believe it is possible to take away one’s house, but never one’s dignity.
The system is designed to be implemented in a short timeframe: residents can move into the town in 2-3 months from the beginning of construction. The 'constructor' system is easy to adapt to different types of terrain, site shapes, budget, and settlement density.
The modules, regardless of layout, have the same area and are grouped into self-sufficient residential sections. For the residents' comfort, each section has at least one bathroom, kitchen, and a shared space for relaxation and socialization.
Residential sections are grouped into full-fledged neighborhoods with playgrounds and green areas. If necessary, the quarter can be scaled to the size of a town, which can comfortably accommodate more than 8,000 people.
