The house on Faninskyi Lane is part of the historic Shatylivka district, which developed on the outskirts of Kharkiv alongside the early aviation industry. Built in the 1920s as housing for Ukrpovitroshliakh employees, it is one of the few surviving examples of this typology. Over time, the building lost much of its original character due to unsystematic renovations, including the addition of an extra floor. In 2021, it was reinterpreted through a contemporary architectural approach that preserved the existing structure while redefining the façade. The project demonstrates how historical buildings can be carefully integrated into the modern urban context.

The history of this house is linked to the history of a neighbourhood that, some 150 years ago, was the outskirts of the city of Kharkiv — Shatylivka, named after a famous residence of Mrs. Shatilova.

Dmytro Shchebetyuk, public activist and founder of the NGO Dostupno.UA, which advocates for accessibility and inclusion in Ukraine, visited Kharkiv to film the YouTube show Vidkryttia (“Discovery”). The project aims to collect stories about unity, creativity, and inclusion.

Among the locations selected by the team was the Lazar Rosenfeld House, one of Alter Development’s projects. The building serves as an example of a space designed with the principles of physical accessibility and inclusivity in mind.

Lazar Rosenfeld`s House is an early 20th-century building that, despite decades of neglect and structural collapse, has been brought back to life through careful reconstruction.

The project combines accurate façade restoration with the adaptation of interior spaces for contemporary use. New structural solutions made it possible to preserve the building’s character without compromising its proportions or architectural logic.

This project demonstrates how restoration can be both a sustainable and economically viable approach to urban development.

The Ukrainian media ЛЮК has released a documentary film about Kharkiv’s architectural heritage and the people who care deeply about preserving it.

The film explores why architecture matters to society, what exactly we lose along with historic buildings, and how we can develop a different attitude toward these spaces — one that is more attentive, responsible, and humane.
The documentary features examples of careful restoration, revitalisation, and the people already working to ensure that Kharkiv does not lose its unique identity.

Taras Doronin, CEO of Alter Development, is among speakers appearing in the film.

We invite you to watch the film via the link below:

We believe that preserving architectural heritage is an investment in the future development of cities.

By restoring landmark buildings and adapting them for contemporary use, we:
– maintain urban identity
– set professional standards for the market
– demonstrate that heritage can remain economically sustainable

Alter works not only with the physical fabric of buildings, but also with the continuity of architectural heritage as part of sustainable urban development.
