Пенчо Койчев: 140 години от рождението на архитект

Аннотация

The article presents a book on Architect Koichev, who belongs to the generation of the founders of the contemporary Bulgarian architecture. Like many of them, P. Koichev had been educated in Europe (Ghent, Belgium) and graduated there in 1901. Regarding his works, we see an organic combination of the European culture and the regional (and Bulgarian) origin, along with a strong individuality and talent in all his creative life. The reviewed book is an article collection dedicated to the birthday of the architect. We can conclude that the fundamental merit of PenchoKoichev's works is the attitude towards the aesthetic characteristics of the interior and exterior as a whole ensemble.They are now comparable to the best ever created by the architects of his generation in European and Balkan contexts.
