    Oleksandr Kolesnykov

    Tutor, Head of the Third-Year Undergraduate BA Architecture

    Department of Architecture and Urbanism

    Like many Kharkiv architects, Oleksandr Kolesnykov is a graduate of the Kharkiv National University of Construction and Architecture. His professional work covers three main areas. The first includes project design and construction and focuses on urbanism, architecture, interiors, object design, graphics and texts. In late 1980s, Kolesnykov worked in the State Institute for University Building Design, participated in the design of universities in Rivne, Simpheropol, and Zaporizhzhya and the Sumy Agrarian Institute, the Krasnodar Higher Military Institute, the Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute and other institutes. In August 2002, Kolesnykov became a founder and Chief Architect of JSC Nice-Project. This architectural office designed projects for the East-West residential development, Sumsky Market, town-houses and office centres, Kharkiv.

    Another area of Kolesnykov’s professional interests includes international competitions. At first, Kolesnykov took part in competitions individually or together with his friends; lately he has also started to invite his students. Regular participation in competition design enables an architect to work with various landscapes, climates, cultures and relevant and well-prepared briefs and ToRs. Victories add to the portfolio and contextualize architectural work in the international trends. About 30 projects by Kolesnykov have won prizes (from Grand Prix to Honourable Mention) from the international associations Habitat and Oistat, and also are recognized in Spain, France, Italy, Germany, Yugoslavia, USSR, Ukraine and Japan. During the last three years, his victories include the Theatre Space, Taiwan (Oistat competition), a conference hall,  Pisa, Italy (just 18 m from the Tower of Pisa), and a school restoration project for the 24 Hours international competition. During the same period, Kolesnykov completed several more competition projects, which remain equally interesting, even if not included in the number of prize-winners.

    Kolesnykov’s third area of interest includes academic work. For five years, while continuing his project work, Kolesnykov has worked as a lecturer in the Kharkiv Technical University of Construction and Architecture and for another year – in the KhSA. Kolesnykov believes that independent Ukrainian architecture can be created only through comprehending and processing international experience. Cultures, methods, landscapes, materials, project topics, goal setting and implementation, attitude towards the void, responsibility, patterns, and adjacent arts: all this range should be available for Ukrainian students. This will provide them with material to create Ukrainian architecture.

    Team

    Drozdov is an architect, urbanist, artist, academic, and EU Mies van der Rohe Award expert. Since 1997, he is the founder and Chief Architect of Drozdov&Partners architectural office. In 2017, Drozdov became a co-founder of the Kharkiv School of Architecture and its Technical Bloc curator and lecturer. Since 2020, he is a co-founder and the Chief Architect of the Paragraph studio of architecture and urbanism in Montreux, Switzerland.

    In 2015, Drozdov curated the Terralogia art project in Shcherbenko Art Centre, Kyiv, and YermilovCentre for contemporary art, Kharkiv, Ukraine. In 2012, he curated the Circumstances project representing Ukraine at the Moscow Architecture Biennale, winning the First Prize in the “Best Curated Project” nomination. In 2011, Drozdov was the co-author and critic of the Columbia University GSAPP semester project. In 2005, he represented Ukraine at the Flood International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam (IABR) with the “Monisto” project. In 2003, Drozdov initiated the Architectural Ambulance international project design workshop, Kharkiv, a ground-breaking event for Ukraine.

    The most widely discussed project by Drozdov is the Podil Theatre reconstruction in Kyiv, Ukraine: it showcased issues crucial for Ukrainian society and expanded the limits of traditional architectural aesthetics. This project received a number of awards and, in 2019, was nominated for a prestigious EU prize for architecture, EU Mies van der Rohe Award. In 2021, two new objects by Drozdov&Partners were nominated for EU Mies van der Rohe Award: the VG Horse Club and the Sense Dental Clinic.

    Drozdov is positive that architects must develop their sense of place, culture, climate, and time. To this end, his whole team is engaged in international projects in France, Korea, Kuwait, Spain, Switzerland, the USA, and other countries, which expand their world view and provide a better understanding of themselves and their own culture. The key project method practised by the team is discussion and peer revision. Another crucial factor for the team’s development is a regular exchange of functions between the architects: their work ranges from urban design and large-scale area research to interior design and even scenography. This practice provides the team with a broad scope of competences and experience, which can be applied to expand their understanding of the situation, visibly improve the quality of their solutions and make them more insightful.
