Dzherelo

3D Model

Dzherelo Pavilion is located in the Shevchenkivskiy district near the Golden Gate in the cozy courtyard of the former Kyivproekt. The experimental late modernist project of Dzherelo sends viewers to different styles and even periods. Outside, the 4 brick towers that support the flat roof reminiscent of the tectonics of medieval fortresses. Inside, the square plan is framed at the corners by round rooms of 2.5 meters a diameter, where metal bowls were installed, similar to ancient sanctuaries dedicated to the water element. Such various sensations from one building are close to the concept of architectural folly. In architecture, a folly is a building constructed primarily for decoration, but suggesting through its appearance some other purpose, or of such extravagant appearance that it transcends the range of usual garden buildings. Dzherelo was a folly of the mid-90s in Kyiv. Currently, there are no analogs of the architecture of such a building in Ukraine.
