Anna Martovitskaya. Special case

In 2001 there was installed a building with remarkable rounded facade by Sergei Skuratov’s project along Burdenko street, which joins the Garden Ring and Hamovniki. Today "Sergei Skuratov Architects" have another client and different requirements, but the second construction will be located almost opposite to the first one, and soon Burdenko street will gain not only a new building but a very interesting dialogue of the two creations belonging to the same master.

Julia Tarabarina. Quayside house. The palace

“Barkley-plaza”, an office building along the Prechistinskaya quay fronts the river as well as “Danilovsky fort”. But it looks more like a palace, than a fort.

Julia Tarabarina. Quayside house. The fort

This year Sergey Skuratov has almost at the same time completed construction of the two office buildings located on Prechistenskaya and Novodanilovaskaya quays. They have a lot in common, in particular, they both appreciate presence of the river, though the author does not aim to build “real” bridges to it.

Maria Fadeeva. A ship in front of the Lavra

Nowadays many Russian companies work in Kiev – publishing houses, restaurateurs and developers, architects. One of the latest examples is the contest project by Sergey Skuratov on reconstruction of the territory of a former footware factory located in the Kiev’s historical centre right in front of Kievo-Pecherskaya Lavra. The architects import to the Ukrainian capital not only their style with elaborated ornaments of facades and attention to texture of materials, but also their own experience of a block development that considers a city’s interests

Julia Tarabarina. Alive and monumental

By Sergey Skuratov’s project, winner of the private contest, there will be built a new residential accommodation in Kiev, five towers lifted onto the high stylobate. Its architectural image combines European gloss and popular nowadays streamlined forms with allusions to the antiquity of the Kiev’s land, playing in front of the audience a delicate and good version of a geological cataclysm

Julia Tarabarina. Gene code for a district, or poetic town-planning

A ‘design-code’ produced by Sergey Skuratov’s workshop for the 473 district in Khamovniki presents a new variant of Moscow town-planning. It is more than just a plan or a list of recommendations, it gives a detailed image of the district in project. It is interesting to note that here the architect is concerned not just with volume and texture but with ‘psychological problems’ of the locality, and tries to bring a new soul into it.

Julia Tarabarina. Confrontation at Donskoy

The concept was offered for the architectural competition for the best project of building up the area of ‘Krasny proletariy’ factory; its plan view reminds of a map of military operations between ‘modernism’ and ‘historicism’. It is noteworthy that 300 years ago at the same place the army led by Boris Godunov confronted forces of Gazy Geray. The concept is new for Moscow since it separates private and public spaces by placing them on different levels and forms more comfortable type of urban space.
