FUTURA

FUTURA is an uncompromising example of an office building in the third millennium. Lots of bold solutions, starting with color and ending with a rooftop garden.

FUTURA challenges the usual and everyday, setting unprecedented standards of Ukrainian architecture.

MAKHNO studio specialists were faced with the task of architectural concept of the administrative building of one of the largest Ukrainian industrial enterprises in the field of metallurgy.

We decided to broadcast the nature and status of the enterprise in its appearance.

Saving space was also a challenge, because we wanted to create an oasis of nature and relaxation in the middle of an urban vibe, but there was no place for it before.

SPACE IS NOT A COLLECTION OF OBJECTS,
BUT THE TOTALITY OF RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THEM

When designing FUTURA, we thought of ecosystems, not individual objects or elements. Nature-centeredness, architecture as a continuation of the landscape and design as an embodiment of natural principles became our basis.

In the middle of the square rises the gigantic DIDO, an author's sculpture by MAKHNO Product. And on the roof of the central building there is an urban garden.

Thanks to the holistic vision of MAKHNO Studio specialists, the FUTURA architectural ensemble is impressive, but perfectly played and balanced.
