Dear architects! We sincerely congratulate you on your professional holiday!
The art of architecture is inspiration, it's the creation of the world around us, the search for new forms and possibilities, the blending of tradition and modernity—it's your dreams coming to life. You are the artists whose canvases are cities, whose paints are stone, glass, and metal. We are proud of you—our graduates, teachers, and students, who have shaped the images of Russian cities for two centuries, whose efforts created St Petersburg—Leningrad—and those who are just beginning their creative journey.
May your creative spirit never leave you and inspire you with new, amazing ideas that we will bring to life together, and may many exciting projects await us together! May harmony and beauty be within and around you!
In honor of the holiday, SPbGASU and the Committee for Urban Planning and Architecture of the Government of St Petersburg invite everyone to take part in the architectural dictation. Upon completion of the dictation, all participants will receive a certificate with an assessment from the Chief Architect of St Petersburg Pavel Sokolov. You can test your knowledge of the architecture of the Northern capital from 6 to 13 July.
