Architectural Resources Group / ARG Conservation Services Joins
The Charge To Rebuild Ukraine
With Innovative Building Techniques

REUkraine: REstart, REbuild, REcover

9th of February 2024, San Francisco, CA – – Architectural Resources Group / ARG Conservation Services, Inc. (ARG / ARG CS) provided the home base for the ten member Ukrainian Study Trip from January 19 to 29. The trip was conceived to demonstrate rapid reconstruction methods that utilize innovative methods and sustainable materials to rebuild hospitals, residences, and schools in the war-torn country while respecting and preserving cultural heritage. It was developed by the Center for Innovation (CFI), in partnership with Dobrobat, a Ukrainian non-government organization (NGO) focused on rapid rebuilding response. Leaders of NGOs, members of Parliament, construction professionals and architects were among the selected delegates on the trip.

The estimated cost of rebuilding Ukraine is more than $500 Billion USD and the time to start rebuilding is now due to the scope of the damage. The Study Trip allowed the visitors to connect with a community of leaders in the design and construction industry, government officials, and NGO leadership. During their stay, the delegates learned about advanced means and methods of construction, including industrialized construction; integrated project delivery; robotics; AI; and other technologies. They spent time touring many local sites and ARG / ARG CS’s San Francisco offices served as a home base for the visiting delegates.

In addition to touring ARG / ARG CS project sites at Stanford University, The Presidio of San Francisco, and Filoli Gardens, the group gathered at the office for a presentation focused on incorporating cultural heritage into recovery, and later in the week for an exchange of ideas and a discussion of next steps over brunch.

On Friday, January 26th, the Ukrainian delegation was hosted at a public reception hosted by the US Department of State, and at a public talk at SPUR in San Francisco, Planning for Rebuilding During War: Voices from Ukraine, Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi came to meet the group. Pelosi spoke briefly to the audience about the importance of our ongoing relationship with Ukraine.

ARG / ARG CS Principal, David Wessel, became involved with CFI during the Summer of 2023. He visited Ukraine in July 2023 with two CFI members and spoke at conference on reconstruction and recovery jointly sponsored by CFI and Dobrobat. David and other ARG / ARG CS staff and Principals offered a perspective on recovery during the Study Trip that emphasized the importance of restoring and preserving cultural heritage while rebuilding. “Why should cultural heritage be incorporated into the recovery of Ukraine? Because data from past recovery efforts has shown that involving community and cultural heritage professionals in planning and recovery implementation is a very important factor for success,” says Wessel.

CFI is seeking partners to both work with a fund reconstruction. To learn more about the program

Sweco helps build Ukraine housing

Sweco has been given the assignment of leading the procurement for and supporting the construction of housing in six cities in western Ukraine. The objective is to quickly meet the needs of internally displaced people for housing, heating, water and electricity.

There are currently 6.2 million internally displaced people (IDPs) in Ukraine. In response to the effects of the war, the EU has decided to finance housing, schools, pre-schools and hospitals as well as to repair infrastructure in liberated cities in Ukraine.

Sweco’s assignment includes ensuring that European procurement norms are complied with when the project organisations procure contractors for the buildings in six municipalities located in the Western parts of Ukraine, which will receive new EU-funded IDP housing.

“It feels incredibly gratifying to contribute Sweco’s expertise in a concrete manner that enables meeting people’s basic needs, such as shelter, water, and electricity. Sweco has extensive experience in rapidly putting together and managing teams comprised of international and local players with the right skills to make this possible,” says Åsa Bergman, President and CEO of Sweco.

“We are pleased to see that the EU-funded action for IDPs’ urgent housing needs is now proceeding. We are committed to working towards a green recovery in Ukraine together with procured partners to ensure that Ukraine is rebuilt greener and better,” says Ulf Bojö, Vice President, Green Transition in Eastern Europe at Nefco.

The project starts immediately and is planned to continue for two years. Sweco will be collaborating with local Ukrainian consultants. The client is Nefco, the Nordic Green Bank, which is an international financial institution founded by the five Nordic countries. Nefco has broad experience of financing municipal projects in Ukraine and acts as an implementing agency for the EU’s actions to support Ukraine.

Ukrainian and Dutch spatial professionals build network for reconstruction Ukraine

The war in Ukraine has reduced cities to rubble and has affected millions of people. Although the war is still raging in full force, it is good to start thinking about rebuilding the country now. And in doing so, listening to the needs of Ukrainians.

To this end, Ukrainian and Dutch spatial professionals have united in the Ukraine – the Netherlands Urban Network (UNUN). So that they can meet the challenges of a sustainable and liveable reconstruction of Ukraine with joint effort. The UNUN network responds to urgent needs such as job search, knowledge exchange and capacity building. The UNUN network and the online platform unun.nu will be presented at the City Makers Congres (“Stadmakerscongres”) in Rotterdam on Friday 4 November.

Chief Government Architect Francesco Veenstra: “Rebuilding Ukraine is not just about asphalt, concrete and bricks. It is about a sustainable, liveable and dignified restoration of the country. I call on the Dutch design and construction sector to share design strength and knowledge and become active within the UNUN network.”

Oleksandra Tkachenko: “Ukraine faces an immense spatial challenge. And can become the innovative forerunner in urban planning and sustainable design in the 21st century.”

Matching work

In the coming period, the network is committed to organising studio visits, educational exchange, workshops and a lecture series. Ukrainian architects, landscape designers and urban planners looking for work in the Netherlands can use the website to get in touch with Dutch design and engineering firms willing to (temporarily) employ people from Ukraine.

UNUN is a joint initiative of Ukrainian spatial professionals in the Netherlands, the Board of Government Advisors, AIR Rotterdam, Independent School for the City, Het Nieuwe Instituut, PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency, Kuiper Compagnons and Orange Architects.

A House For Lebbeus Woods In Ukraine

Text from ICARCH Competitions

The question is: if Lebbeus Woods lived in Ukraine, now, would he have imagined what very often he imagined in his drawn oeuvre?

A similar question could have been: if Peter Eisenman lived in Haiti, at the time of the tremendous earthquake that devastated the country, would he have still chosen the theoretical banner of En Terror Firma?

But then, perhaps it is not art that copies life, but the other way around.

So maybe, to an extent at least, both Lebbeus Woods and Peter Eisenman had premonitions…they anticipated disasters that were to come.

But maybe those disasters were mainly within themselves.

Architecture is War – War is Architecture – wrote Lebbeus Woods.
And this year there are 10 years since he died.

We invite you to imagine A HOUSE FOR LEBBEUS WOODS – in Ukraine.

Would it be very similar to what we already see, published, almost daily?
Or would it be in some kind of opposition?
What do you think?

Please reflect on the way he drew… he drew like an old master… magnificently well… the manner of drawing was somehow in disjunction with the matter depicted.

Woods was obsessed by death, although one could have rarely found a more vital man than him. Maybe not by accident Peter Cook called him “the craggy optimist.” Yet, this “optimist” drew some of the most horrific scenes in architectural imagery, lately.

Would we like to live in his drawings? What do his drawings represent? A world in turmoil. A world in conflict. A world at war with itself.

Was there any Apollo to be envisioned at the end of the dark tunnel?

Not really, although the beauty of the drawings (if one makes abstraction of that they depicted) could be seen, somehow, sometimes, Apollonian, although Woods was rather attracted, it seems, by Dionysus.

We invite you to imagine a house that would be, possibly, an extension of his drawn works, a physical expression of his fears and his hopes, an architecture of turbulence, at a time of turbulence, in a world which cannot stand still.

DESIGN A HOUSE FOR LEBBEUS WOODS – IN UKRAINE.

Please send us ANY work, ANY size and ANY format, digitally, to [email protected]. We will publish all of them. If you have any questions, please contact us. The deadline is October 30th, 2022.

Thank you, I C A R C H

National Union of Architects of Ukraine News

The National Union of Architects of Ukraine has called upon the International Union of Architects to revoke Russia’s membership of the global institution, following the country’s invasion of Ukraine.

“We demand that Russia be deprived of its membership of the UIA,” wrote National Union of Architects of Ukraine (CANY) president Oleksandr Chyzhevsky in a letter to International Union of Architects (UIA) president Jose Luis Cortes Delgado.

Chyzhevsky called for the UIA – a non-governmental body that represents global architects in over 100 countries – to “strongly and unequivocally condemn the criminal actions of the Russian government” following the country’s invasion of Ukraine, which began last week.

Yesterday UIA expressed its “unwavering solidarity with all those affected” in a statement, but Chyzhevsky called for the organisation to go further and expel the Union of Architects of Russia from the international organisation.

“Those who do not condemn Russia’s actions support them,” said Chyzhevsky. “They support a crime against all mankind, incompatible with UIA’s humanitarian goals.”

“We are convinced that the UIA must decide on Russia’s membership,” he continued. “If we turn a blind eye to their passive position, we will also side with the enemy, with the destruction of human values.”

International Union of Architects Statement

In the face of the mounting tragic events in Ukraine, the International Union of Architects (UIA) expresses its unwavering solidarity with all those affected and calls for unity and peace among nations. On behalf of the international community of architects, we condemn any act of violence or war affecting the well-being and dignity of humans, join the global appeal against war and call for the immediate restoration of peace.

The UIA was founded in 1948 – after the Second World War – to unite architects around the world and actively participate in the reconstruction of devastated cities and villages. We continue to believe that the greatest obligation of humanity is the preservation of peace.

As the leading global organisation of architects committed to creating safe and healthy environments, we also call for the protection of the invaluable architectural heritage threatened by this conflict.
