Abstract

In the years after the First World War, after 1918, in the newly formed Kingdom of SHS, the need to rebuild the destroyed buildings in the cities was necessary. In the production of the residential architecture of Skopje in the period from 1922-1941 architects and engineers, emigrants from Russia, during 1919-1921 left a special mark while settling in Skopje: Ivan Artemushkin, Boris Dutov, Evgenij Datskov; Vyacheslav Bujko, Efraim Bronstein, Nikolai Burhanovski, Konstantin V. Khomenko... A few Russian architects who, through temporary work in the municipal services of the technical department, acquired a good reputation, but also some initial financial capital, already from the mid-1920s opened independent technical bureaus (Vyecheslav Bujko; Boris Dutov – technical bureau "Vardar" (1921-22); Konstantin Khomenko - technical bureau "Kultura" (1923). The entire production of all these architects and engineers, which essentially formed the central city core of Skopje, was for the most part permanently destroyed by the earthquake of 1963. This paper reviews the architects and engineers, emigrants from Russia, who settled in Skopje during the period 1919-1921.

Keywords: residential architecture; Russian architects; architectural office; Skopje.
