Gradients of socialization in university architecture

Master thesis (2026) - A. Khlieban, O. Caso, J.M. van Zalingen, M. Finagina
The assignment behind this design project and the accompanying research paper is to develop a university building that supports a wide range of interactions between its users, specifically student–student, student–teacher, and teacher–student relationships. The project focuses on circulation spaces as the central spatial element, transforming them into areas that support interaction while offering varying degrees of territorial control. These different levels of openness and privacy aim to enable diverse forms of engagement between students and teachers.

The project is situated within the School of Economics at the Bocconi Campus in Milan. ...
Student report (2025) - A. Khlieban, I. Nevzgodin
This paper analyses the wooden villas of Pushcha-Vodytsia in Ukraine. This analysis partially relies on attempts to locate this architecture in between the wooden practices in neighboring countries. More precisely, the wooden villas of Pushcha-Vodytsia are compared to wooden summerhouses located in Otwock, Poland. The choice for the Otwock settlement was made due to their similarities with the analyzed Ukrainian example. As a result, the research question is: What are the differences in architecture, particularly detailing approaches, between two comparable wooden housing types constructed at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries in Otwock and Pushcha-Vodytsia?
The research methodology is based on gathering and summarising information about the development history, building masses, and detailing of the wooden houses of Otwock. Then that knowledge is compared with the history and architectural aspects of villas in Pushcha-Vodytsi. The literature concerning the Ukrainian example is limited therefore the analysis is done based on the available photomaterials.
The conducted research proved the wooden houses of Otwock and Pushcha-Vodytsia share similarities in terms of their historical development, building masses, and general approaches toward detailing. The aspects, in which the villas of Ukraine are different from the Polish example, are also underlined. Lastly, a brief analysis of the chosen ornaments of Pushcha-Vodytsia houses was conducted.
The conducted research established a new discussion theme that was not acknowledged before. Namely, the research concerning the wooden villas of Pushcha-Vodytsia is currently limited. ...
