The design is attributed to Kyiv's unique geography and how engineers and city planners applied the Metro development project to it.

The goal was to link Kyiv-Pasazhyrskyi railway station via the city centre to the residential districts on the left bank of the river.

Since the planned junction between the Brovary avenue and the right bank was to happen at that point, it was decided to turn the metro line first southeast via the Arsenal factory and then make a right angle turn northeast and make the Brovarsky radius go on the surface similar in design to Moscow's Filyovskaya line.

In engineering terms, the design incorporates two distinct portions: a large structure on the western side with an estacade track and platforms coming out.

The western side structure consists of an embankment level vestibule with ticket halls and staircases leading onto the platforms.

Tram tracks were used for rail cars and these were pushed onto a rotor which spun them 90 degrees before hydraulically lifting them up onto the estacade.
