Associate professors from the Higher School of Design and Architecture of the Civil Engineering Institute of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, Elena Ladik and Maria Drebezgova, took part in the 10th All-Russian Forum "Barkamp 2025."
The forum's business program included an expert session, "The Arctic as a Breakthrough Scientific and Technological Project for Russia," dedicated to the strategic objectives of developing the Russian Federation's Arctic zone. Participants discussed key development areas for the region: enhancing its attractiveness as a place to live and work, creating sustainable social and engineering infrastructure, implementing advanced technologies, and mechanisms for government and industry support for the implementation of innovative projects.
Elena Ladik and Maria Drebezgova participated in the session, presenting innovative projects for the development of Arctic and Far North territories. Under their guidance, ISI Master's student Yulia Demyanyuk contributed to the development of project concepts for the development of the Arctic residential environment. ISI Master's students Alexandra Sudarikova and Ekaterina Falaleeva developed projects related to the development of Arctic and northern tourism.
In recent decades, interest in developing the Arctic and Far North has been growing worldwide. Developing the Arctic zone is one of the most pressing challenges for the Russian Federation and requires the creation of infrastructure and an architectural environment that takes into account regional characteristics. This year, together with master's students from the Higher School of Design and Architecture of the Civil Engineering Institute, we focused our design work on issues of organizing the architectural environment in harsh climates and the search for a regional identity for northern territories. We plan to continue working on this topic next year, shared Elena Ladik.
