What is
“Nashe place”?

Nashe (наше) is for “our” in Ukrainian; and “Nashe place”
is a Ukrainian idiom for a truly special meeting spot with abound dear memories.

The Nashe Place project is dedicated to revitalizing public spaces that have been neglected or affected by the russian-Ukrainian war. We focus on small towns or villages.

In collaboration with Nashe Place team, local communities are to craft a contemporary public space: from bringing to life the vision conceived by skilled architects and urban designers to constructing small structures with the expertise of top-notch specialists.

The process allows the community to foster horizontal connections, while the space offers opportunities to organize one’s life outside the home with dignity and comfort.

Makariv is

home to 15,000 residents located within an hour's drive from Kyiv

February-March 2022

It is a serene and well-maintained town in the Kyiv region. This is a place where people used to enjoy fishing on the Zdvyzh River, attend photo exhibitions at the Cultural Center, and unwind in local parks. While its history dates back to the 16th century, archaeological findings reveal settlements from Neolithic times on its grounds.

In February and March 2022, the Makariv community, like many others in the Kyiv region, bravely faced the russian troops during the defense of Kyiv. For nearly a month, the community endured occupation. Preliminary assessments indicate that the settlement suffered around 40% destruction.

З  April 2022

In April 2022, the process of reconstruction commenced. According to the restoration concept of Makariv territorial community, 41,3% of representatives is in favor of enhancing the livability of settlements. Notably, the community placed emphasis on the revitalization of Panskyi Park.

Our aim

is to construct a distinctive location on the shores of the Zdvyzh River, nestled within Panskyi Park, seamlessly linking it with marginalized historical center of Makariv (The Hillfort).
