Rolit, Literary house in Kyiv, Ukraine.
The Rolit building combines constructivist architecture with classical elements through its structured facade and symmetrical composition on Bohdana Khmelnytskoho Street.
Architect Vasyl Krychevsky completed the Rolit building in 1939, establishing a dedicated space for writers during a period of cultural transformation in Ukraine.
The structure functions as a meeting point for Ukrainian writers, poets, and intellectuals who gather to exchange ideas and contribute to national literature.
Visitors can access the building's exhibitions and attend literary events throughout the year, experiencing the intersection of architecture and literature.
Each architectural detail reflects Krychevsky's integration of Ukrainian folk art elements into modern design principles, creating a distinctive structural language.
