Mariupol got a chance for the full reload and renovation through the terrifying destruction of the war. Remembering the price paid for its defend, and the de-occupation in the future, we’re putting the value of human life as the base of the future of the new city.
We researched actual attitude to transformation of modern sustainable cities in response to the challenges of future, and combined this global experience with the unique culture and history of Mariupol.
Re: Mariupol project is at the same time our dream, plan and vision of the post-war rebuild of Mariupol, which we’d like to share with the world. It’s a reminder about the city and people who were attempted to be frightened and fully destroyed. About the city and people who will meet again one day. But they will be totally different from the past ones.
