He was a member of the White Guards and became a white émigré in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. He was elected municipal engineer in 1925 for the implementation of the First Regulation Plan of Kumanovo of 1923.

Ivan Artemushkin(1886 - 1950)He was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia, on January 3, 1886. His father, Georgy Artemushkin, was a lawyer, while his mother, Natalia, was a housewife. He continued his education at the Institute of Civil Engineers in Saint Petersburg, and after graduating, in May 1914, he began working as an engineering architect. In the meantime, he married Ksenia, and in 1916, their only daughter, Natalia, was born. After the October Revolution, a large part of the Russian bourgeoisie fled to different parts of the world, including the then Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Croats. Here they formed communities, Russian colonies, and the state granted them resident status and work permits. Thus, Artemushkin, together with his family, moved to Skopje in 1920, where he was approved to study civil engineering in Skopje on August 23 of that year. He soon got a job in the engineering department of the third army district, and then in 1922, the same name is found as an engineer in the Skopje municipality. In the early 1930s, he received a license to have his own technical bureau, which was located in the Aroesti passage no. 10. We know that he also collaborated with other famous Skopje figures, such as Boris Dutov, with whom he was also family friends. In the following period, he became one of the most famous architects in the city, as evidenced by the large number of designed and realized buildings, which according to the files of Artemushkin's technical bureau, numbered up to 694 projects. His oeuvre is mainly in Skopje, but we also find projects for palaces in Ohrid and Niš, which indicates that he built far and wide. Artemushkin, in 1935, as a smaller modern house, sufficient for him, his daughter and his daughter. It was located on Vuk Karadžić Street (today Beneševa Street), in the Bunjakovec neighborhood, opposite the Greek Embassy. This region of the city experienced many transformations in the following years, which today do not meet traces of the original building, nor evidence of whether they were built. Its opening is considered the beginning of World War II, and after it in the architectural department of the Ministry of Construction, in the first government of Macedonia. In 1948, probably for reasons, together with the families they leave for the city of Veliko Tr in Bulgaria and thus the largest activity in Skopje ends. Artemushkin died in 1950 in Plovdiv, the family later moved to Paris. Research book Natalia, later Maslova, also became an engineer and continued to live in France until the early 2000s.

Although he designed many buildings in Belgrade and Yugoslavia between the two world wars, he is largely forgotten today. Many of his works were destroyed or substantially altered during World War II and the period of communist dictatorship. Momir Korunović was born on April 17, 1883 in Jagodina, Serbia. He was raised in the village of Glogovac, where his father Prota Petar Korunović served as a priest. Korunović finished his higher education in Belgrade and went on to finish postgraduate studies at Czech Technical University in Prague, funded by a scholarship from the Ministry of Education of Serbia. During his studies, he formed a distinctive personal style that he would continue to develop throughout his career. Korunović build the Belgrade city center for physical culture "Stari DIF", located on Deligradska street in Savski Venac municipality. The project was built for the needs of the Sokol Society "Matica" between 1929 and 1936. He also designed a stadium ("Sokol stadium") for the 1930 Sokol manifestation in Belgrade. The stadium was located on the site of today's Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. The stadium accommodated around 40,000 spectators. It had arched entrances, four for the audience and three for athletes. On the north side, there was a music pavilion in the form of an arched tribune, with towers in the background, decorated with the symbols of the All-Slavic Sokol movement. On the south side was the royal lodge. For this project, he was awarded the Order of Saint Sava. The Seismological Institute Building and the Post-Telegraph-Telephone Museum are also the work of Momir Korunović as well as many churches, monuments (for example, Zebrnjak and Memorial Ossuary, Mačkov kamen) and other prominent buildings, with total of 143 authored projects. In 1922 Korunović was entrusted with the task of renovating the marshal's office of the Yugoslavian Royal Palace so it would be suitable for guests coming to Belgrade for the royal wedding of King Alexander I Karađorđević and Princess Maria of Romania. The semicircular wings were kept for accommodations while the rest of the building was assigned to the Marshal of the Court. The building was demolished in 1953, as it blocked the view of the Parliament. The old Post Office has also been altered beyond recognition. The new, communist authorities, considered its façade "too bourgeois" so they removed the remains of the façade and reconstructed only the skeletal architecture under it, which suited the more simplified style which was pushed by the government in the immediate post-war period. In addition to working in the civil service as a government official in the Ministry of Construction, Korunović was also a prominent member of the Pan-Slavic organization Sokol. He was the head of the Belgrade Sokol Society "Matica" and was responsible for construction of about thirty Sokol movement buildings in Serbia.
