Winter fairground
In winter, the riverside park transforms into a festive hub with a skating rink and seasonal market.
Chumak Way Park
Project Year(s)
2016
Location
Ukraine, Kyiv region, Vita-Poshtova village
Objective
To transform a neglected green corridor along the Chumak Way into a recreational space for the local community.
Challenge
The site suffered from seasonal flooding, poor accessibility, and lack of any infrastructure. Despite its central location, it remained unused and invisible.
Solution
The project proposed a continuous riverside promenade designed as a raised terrace-walkway along the water, offering new perspectives of the stream. Seasonal programming gave the space flexibility: a winter fairground and skating area created a festive hub, while in summer the park supported everyday recreation with play zones, lawns, and quiet walking routes. The design turned a forgotten riverbank into a vibrant linear park, reconnecting residents with nature and community life.
Riverside terrace
A raised wooden walkway runs along the stream, giving residents new views of the water and connecting both sides of the park.
Community square
An open paved area provides space for gatherings, street performances, and everyday social activities.
Everyday recreation
Lawns and quiet paths create a relaxed setting for walking, playing, and spending time with pets.
