Cherkasy Zoo

How can a zoo contribute to a city’s welfare? An intriguing question. Fulco Treffers, committed as a guest teacher to the Kharkiv School of Architecture, worked with students on a vision for the zoo in Cherkasy, Ukraine. His knowledge of the city, leisure and design were used in a workshop with students from all parts of Ukraine.

During this very intensive work period, students made a vision for the zoo in three groups, a design strategy and a number of concrete design suggestions. What is the future of Cherkasy zoo?
