单位城市一期
UNIT City 1st stage
科齐乌巴：单位。该市是乌克兰第一个创新园区，也是中东欧最大的创新中心之一。2016年成立于基辅摩托车厂原工业区。由于该工厂在2000年关闭，该场地被废弃。
What is UNIT.City?
KOTSIUBA: UNIT.City is the first Ukrainian innovation park and one of the largest innovation centers in East-Central Europe. It was founded in 2016 on the former industrial zone of Kyiv Motorcycle Factory. Since the Factory closed in the 2000’s, the site was abandoned.
大项目的想法是创建创新园，并在全球范围内振兴24公顷的园区。С整个项目的第一步是建设单元城市。现在我们正在建设第二阶段的活动广场，这里有商业园区和住房。
Implementation stages
Big project idea is the creation of Innovation Park and global revitalisation of site’s 24 hectares. Сonstruction of UNIT.City was the first step of the whole project. Now we are working on the the second stage — Event Plaza with business campuses and housing.
该空间的主要用户是年轻的IT专家和发明家，他们在初创企业工作或在这里学习。有创业孵化器和单元工厂。工厂按照法国学校“42”的制度注册，这意味着没有正式的考试或教授。教育以学生的主动性为基础。经过三年的学习，甚至在学习期间，年轻的专家将能够在位于现场的IT办公室工作。
UNIT.City users
Main users of the space are young IT-specialists and inventors, who work on startups or study here. There are incubator for startups and UNIT.Factory. Enrolment to UNIT.Factory takes place according to the system of the French school `42`, meaning there are no formal exams or professors. Education is based on students initiative. After three years of study or even while studying, a young specialist will be able to work in IT offices that will be located on the site.
规划结构将不同的建筑组合成统一的形象。空间的核心是一个正方形。在这里，带绿色土丘的长凳充当了周围建筑的聚集点。我们在学校、咖啡馆和办公中心附近的露天场所分配了单独的工作和社交场所。该区域还设有供体育活动使用的绿地。特别注意细节：带有内置灯的独立设计栏杆、垃圾箱和长凳。
Project solutions UNIT.City
Our goal was to create a space where everyone feels welcome, that provokes self-development and self-improvement in a social atmosphere.
Planning structure combines different architecture into the unified image.At the core of the space is a square. Here, benches with green mounds act as a gathering point for the surrounding buildings. We allocated separate areas for working and socialising in the open air near the school, the cafe and the office center. There are also green spaces in the area for physical activities.Special attention is paid to details: individually designed railings with built-in light, litter bins and benches.
单位。城市在完全不同的场景下被积极使用。自2017年以来，该单位组织了400多项活动：讲座、网络、展览等。公共空间从早到晚充满活力。居民们白天在露天工作和放松，晚上聚集在广场上弹吉他和闲逛。
How does the space live now?
UNIT.City is actively used under completely different scenarios. Since 2017 UNIT.City organized more than 400 events: lectures, networkings, exhibitions, etc. The public space is full of life from morning until night. Residents work and relax in the open air at daytime, and gather on the square in the evening to play guitar and hang out.
