Lyubov Parkhomyuk, a senior craftswoman of VPU No. 25, said that the benches were installed, in particular, thanks to the help of industrial training masters and students of the institution.
"Such designs arouse general interest and attract attention. This is a unique art object that makes the urban environment more attractive," the article says.
Parkhomyuk emphasized that varnishes are used not only by students of the institution, but also by teachers and residents of the Vystavka microdistrict.
It is noted that the institution plans to continue developing green technologies.
