The new educational facility No. 23, with an area of about 500 square meters, is designed for 100 elementary school students and will serve as an example of how modern technologies can restore educational infrastructure even during wartime.
According to Lviv Deputy Mayor Lyubomyr Zubach, construction work is already in its final stages, and the opening is scheduled for the end of this year. All the main work inside the building has been completed — furniture has been installed, classrooms and lighting have been set up. Now, the landscaping of the territory is underway: playgrounds, a terrace, a ramp, and trampolines are being installed.
“We are actually starting the countdown to the arrival of first-graders in their classrooms. Furniture, desks, cabinets, panoramic windows — everything is modern, comfortable, and stylish,” said Zubach.

The project was created by architects Balbek Bureau in partnership with the humanitarian fund Team4UA, which is implementing a pilot program for 3D printing of social infrastructure in Ukraine. Construction is financed exclusively by charitable funds.
The main advantage of 3D technology is speed and cost-effectiveness. The school’s monolithic concrete walls were printed in less than 48 hours, although due to the war, power outages, and lack of funding, the overall construction period had to be extended.
The school will have a comfortable lobby, classrooms, a staff room, bathrooms, and barrier-free space. It has already received unofficial status as the world’s largest single-story 3D-printed educational building. According to Zubach, this project will serve as a model for the future restoration of schools in Ukraine: 3D printing technology can significantly speed up the construction of educational and residential facilities in affected communities.
