The research team identified twenty-four modernist buildings across Tashkent, selected for their architectural significance, their representation of the city's diverse typologies, and their contribution to modern architecture in Uzbekistan. They include cinemas, museums, markets, metro stations, exhibition halls, civic buildings, and housing.
For each site, the team prepared a comprehensive building passport. Together, these passports established a consistent framework for documenting the city's modern architecture and now form the basis of the project's conservation strategy — a lasting record of each building's history, character, and physical condition to support future research and management.
Spanning three decades of architectural innovation, the twenty-four buildings show how modernist design responded to local climate, craftsmanship, urban planning, and evolving construction technologies, while introducing new typologies and engineering approaches to the region.
