ван Левинський – видатний представник культурного і наукового життя в Галичині кінця ХІХ початку ХХ ст., один із представників Львівської архітектурної школи, який сформував напрям із яскраво вираженими тенденціями використання народних традицій. Поступово він створив своєрідний напрям в європейській архітектурі – український архітектурний стиль. Фасади кращих будинків цього періоду у Львові становлять приклад композиційного об’єднання будівельної конструкції та орнаменту, а скульптурні, керамічні, металеві оздоби пропорційно і ритмічно відповідають архітектурі. Світоглядні засади І. Левинського відзначаються прагненням до раціональних і конструктивних рішень, до гармонії архітектури з природою. Як педагог І. Левинський користувався повагою у студентів. Під керівництвом професора вони формувались як професіонали, оскільки проходили практику в його проектно-будівельній фірмі. Ivan Levynskyi is an outstanding representative of cultural and scientific life in Halychyna at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries. He is one of the representatives of the Lviv Architectural School, which formed a direction, with pronounced tendencies of using folk traditions. Gradually he created a peculiar kind of direction in European architecture – the Ukrainian architectural style. The facades of the best houses of this period in Lviv are an example of a compositional combination of building construction and ornament, and the sculptural, ceramic, metal decors, proportionally and rhythmically correspond to the architecture. The ideological foundations of I. Levynskyi are marked by the desire for rational and constructive decisions, for the harmony of architecture with nature. As a teacher and lecturer, I. Levynskyi enjoyed the respect of students. Under the guidance of the professor, they formed themselves as professionals, as they passed the practice in his design and construction firm.
