‘Healing Kharkiv: From rubble to renewal’, a collaborative proposal from Cundall and Gensler, has won first prize in the Norman Foster Foundation’s Kharkiv Housing Challenge.

The challenge sought to find solutions for rebuilding the housing and public spaces in Ukraine’s second-largest city, Kharkiv, which has been severely damaged by the ongoing conflict. What was key to the success of this proposal was working alongside companies and people who were in Ukraine and had a lived experience in the conflict-ridden area. In doing so, the people of Kharkiv were integral to the design proposal.

The success of this submission is also attributed to Pashenko Architects, Neo-Eco, Never Such Innocence, Andrii Hirniak and Renderek, who all collaborated with us on the project.
