UNK has become an ecosystem

02.02.2022

Modern urban development requires new approaches to design. New residential and commercial facilities must be created holistically, forming a harmonious living environment and space for people. It makes more sense if such a design takes place within a single system, all parts of which are independent, but interconnected.
Responding to today's challenges, the UNK is being transformed into a modern ecosystem, where all companies are connected in a seamless environment to solve a variety of customer challenges. The system has the following profile directions: UNK project, UNK architects, UNK engineering, UNK interiors, UNK landscape, UNK lighting, UNK facade, UNK design.

The UNK ecosystem is designed to accompany a customer at all stages of a project, from concept to completion, whether it be general designing, improving the attractiveness of a facility through design and technical solutions, lighting solutions, landscape design, interior design. Each direction works according to uniform standards, ensuring a guaranteed high quality of performance.

To date, UNK already implements projects of any complexity, from complex solutions of urban planning level - large-scale urban, architectural, engineering, structural solutions - to design of individual design elements within the established ecosystem.

Yuliy Borisov, founder and head of the UNK ecosystem, “First of all, such a scheme is beneficial to a customer, because it gets a guaranteed quality and interconnected complex solutions from one source, thereby reducing the time required to prepare documents for construction. Among other things, this system also reduces the risks of mutual inconsistency in the work of various organizations (architects, engineers, designers, etc.), providing quality control of all the details of a project. This combination of services in the form of highly specialized companies bound by common quality standards and goal-setting is significantly more flexible and more manageable. Consequently, it produces better results in less time than vertically integrated holdings”.

Mr. Borisov is sure that improving the quality of the product is important not only for the customers, but also for urban development in general. In addition, the new approach will ensure the growth of the professional level of architects and designers: through constant interaction within the ecosystem, all project participants will be able to exchange competencies.

"At the moment, there is still a shortage of experienced integrated designers who could not only come up with interesting projects, but also implement them according to the concept," Yuliy Borisov says. UNK plans to create a training center that will help raise the level of competence in the industry, which in turn will help improve the quality of the environment.

Today UNK is one of the leaders in the design and implementation of socially significant projects, and acts as a general designer of 1.5 million square meters (the 3-9 blocks) of the premium Ostrov Residential Complex in the west part of the city. In area the project is comparable to the Principality of Monaco, and in structure and functionality is similar to the Khamovniki district in Moscow.
