About the Project

Repair and restoration of the roof and drainage system of Vladimir Church in Saint Petersburg, a federally protected heritage site. The survey covered the roof finish, attic structures, and the causes of moisture and condensation.

The findings were used to develop a Revit BIM model and working documentation defining restoration and replacement measures while preserving the historic geometry and architectural appearance.

I was the project author and lead architect, responsible for the survey, BIM modeling, visualization, working documentation, and design support. An interactive 3D walkthrough is also available.
