Akademmistechko (Kyiv Metro)

Akademmistechko (Ukrainian: Академмiстечко, pronunciationⓘ) is a station on Kyiv Metro's Sviatoshynsko-Brovarska Line.

Named after the nearby laboratories (literally Academical town) of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, and test centres, the station's design (Architects V. Gnevyshev, Tamara Tselikovska, N. Aleshkin and S. Krushinsky) is based on scientific themes.

The lighting for instance consists of several chandeliers, arranged in an organic element layout with the actual lamps acting as atoms.

Overall the colour tone of the station is pale white from the marble used in coating with additional yellow tints on the hemispherical balconies and the staircases.

The area receives mostly local passengers, thus avoiding unnecessary congestion with non-Kyivans that come from outside of the city via Zhytomyrska.
