Summary:

The Holy Dormition Kiev-Pechersk Lavra is one of the largest Orthodox shrines in Ukraine and the heritage of all mankind.

Adhering to the characteristic features of other buildings on the territory of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra, we created the Fraternal Corps in the original architectural style. The architects obeyed the strict rules of the chosen style and skillfully integrated the building into the overall ensemble of buildings throughout the territory. Thus withstood the "pure" style, leaving all the elements unchanged. Research and development work included the restoration of the appearance of the object, based on its preserved fragments and available historical information about it in the archives.
