The location was chosen in front of Dnipro river to expand the idea in full. It was decided to design green sustainable architecture, as it implies the clever usage of space, including the exploited green roof. Moreover, it's all about merging with nature, fitting into the landscape - there are the key aspects in this project. Furthermore, an innovation to the theater space was applied, putting the rear back of the main stage to the opening of the river view: a convertible construction, which allows showing performances in one audience hall in winter, while in summer to remove the back of the panel and thus to create a small outside audience hall; in other words, it is a multifunctional space with new opportunities for theatrical innovations as well. Technical theater space was hidden in an architectural way: by creating a fuctional sharp "mountain", that becomes a cinema-shelter in rainy days, and allows people to enjoy the space even in the poor weather confitions.

The main entrance is oriented

on North. In front of it a big

square is organized to gather visitors

and for some events. It can be seen

clearly how the building is fit into the 

landscape. Moreover, it was decided to design

a park on the left side, and parking lot on the 

rignt one. Also nearby the park bus stop was made

to comfortability of frequent theatre-goers. As cultural

center is located nearby the river shore, the grade was

raised and sustaining wall was designed to mitigate 

possible flood distractions. The river side is equipped with 

sitting areas and evening entertainment: fountains.
