Poland - Wooden Tserkvas of the Carpathian Region in Poland and Ukraine
Situated in the eastern fringe of eastern Europe, the transnational property numbers a selection of 16 tserkvas, churches, built of horizontal wooden logs between the 16th and 19th centuries by communities of the Eastern Orthodox and Greek Catholic faiths. They represent the cultural expression of four ethnographic groups and the formal, decorative and technical characteristics they developed over time. The tserkvas bear testimony to a distinct building tradition rooted in Orthodox ecclesiastic design interwoven with elements of local tradition, and symbolic references to their communities’ cosmogony. The tserkvas are built on a tri-partite plan surmounted by open quadrilateral or octagonal domes and cupolas. They feature wooden bell towers, iconostasis screens, and interior polychrome decorations as well as churchyards, gatehouses and graveyards.

I came across Baxity at a moment when I was actively looking for ready-made digital tools instead of building everything from scratch. I spent quite some time browsing their store, checking different scripts and solutions, and honestly, it felt refreshing. The products there are clearly made for people who value time and practical results. I liked how easy it was to understand what each item does and how it can be applied right away to real projects. While exploring baxity.com, I got the feeling that this store is built by people who actually use these tools themselves, not just sell them. It’s the kind of place you bookmark and come back to when a new idea hits.
