  • (born 24 November 1937; died 15 February 2003) – Stanyslas Rodyuk marriage. Stanyslas Rodyuk was a renowned architect, and is widely regarded as one of the pioneers of modern architecture of Soviet Modernism and Urban planning. He received architectural education from the great Soviet architects – Joseph Karakis and Gennady Movchan. Stanyslas Rodyuk received higher education in Architecture (MArch) Master of Architecture on (Lenin's) stipend at The National Academy of Visual Arts and Architecture (Stanyslas Rodyuk was awarded a gold medal for his Master's project), where he studied together with the Hungarian architect Janos Toth and the Israeli architect Mark Blus. Young architects met in their first year of study during the Virgin Lands Campaign in the course of architectural practice on Tselina in Kazakhstan. They were united by the poetry of Rabindranath Tagore. Stanyslas Rodyuk, Janos Toth and Mark Blus became friends for life. Architectural views of the friends were enriching their own talents. Mark Blus with his wife Alla Blus repatriated to Israel in the 1970s and got a job there as an architect in Nadlers’ architectural company[42][43] which designed Zalman Aranne Central Library, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev[44]. Then moved to Willowdale, Toronto, Canada where he lived till his death. Stanyslas Rodyuk was a contemporary of architect, urban designer Moshe Safdie. Creative style of Stanyslas Rodyuk has experienced influenced by Oscar Niemeyer and Alvar Aalto. Stanyslas Rodyuk was the author of the idea, creator of planning design and the developer of the architectural project of the building of The Druzhba Sanitarium in Yalta that is located on the Crimea peninsula, Ukraine, at present Russia in the Greater Yalta district. His aesthetic vision of planning was that of parametricism in urban architecture and embodied in the main promises of modernism: public space, light and a sense of opportunity. A big role in the perception of his projects belonged to linear or graphic elements that showed rhythmic and scale features of proportions, emphasized their tectonic and constructive specificity and strengthened the centripetal dynamics with dimensionality of pure and smooth geometric forms using human scale and his natural habitat, based on the laws of the Golden ratio. It is important to note fractal dimension of the mathematical construction of Stanyslas Rodyuk architectural drafts based on outstanding scientific works of Wacław Sierpiński (Sierpinski triangle). During his life, he admired the realized architectural projects of Santiago Calatrava, Zaha Hadid, Norman Foster and Fermín Vázquez[45][46][47]. In his work, Stanyslas Rodyuk paid special attention to the principles of fractal modularity[48] of holistic construction planning, typology (urban planning and architecture) and defended the ideas put forward by Nikos Salingaros[49] about the aesthetics of nature and the geometric processes in it. A significant part of Stanyslas Rodyuk projects, his visionary architecture, as an alternative to official Soviet architecture, literally left "on paper", was not realized because of the originality of decisions that did not coincide with generally accepted opinions due to technical complexity, cost, large-scale or Soviet censorship. His fate in many ways echoed the fate of the Russian constructivist architect, urban planner, painter and teacher Ivan Leonidov. In connection with his political views, Stanyslas Rodyuk was suspended from completion of the building of The Druzhba Sanitarium in Yalta by the architect project leader Igor Vasilevsky – a son of a Marshal of the Soviet Union – Aleksandr Vasilevsky. Stanyslas Rodyuk died of left lung pneumonia caused by tumor load of sarcoma 15 February 2003. The Druzhba Sanitarium in Yalta[50] is recognized as the best architectural project in the history of all Soviet Modernist Urban planning[51][52].
