Maria Lyndina. Projection of a Spiral, Projection of a Wave

Architects from Mezonsproekt have designed a high-rise residential complex of four towers near the intersection of Novaya Riga Highway and the Moskva River. Its landmark status is motivated both by the proximity of Rublyovo-Arkhangelskoye and its SberCity development, and by the theme of two intersecting flows: water and traffic. The architects have organized the façade pattern around the supergraphic image of a pixelated spiral, intended to animate – and perhaps even transform – the perception of the buildings’ prismatic volumes.

Maria Lyndina. A Small Country

Mezonproekt is developing a long-term master plan for the MEPhI campus in Obninsk. Over the next ten years, an enclave territory of about 100 hectares, located in a forest on the northern edge of the city, is set to transform into a modern center for the development of the nuclear energy sector. The plan envisions attracting international students and specialists, as well as comprehensive territorial development: both through the contemporary realization of “frozen” plans from the 1980s and through the introduction of new trends – public spaces, an aquapark, a food court, a school, and even a nuclear medicine center. Public and sports facilities are intended to be accessible to city residents as well, and the campus is to be physically and functionally connected to Obninsk.

Julia Tarabarina. The Fifth Element

The high-end residential development in the Vsevolozhsky Lane features a combination of expensive stone and metal textures, immersing them into a feast of ornaments. The house looks like a fantasy inspired by the theater of the Art Nouveau and Symbolism era; a kind of oriental fairy tale, which paradoxically allows it to avoid direct stylization and become a reflection of one of the aspects of modern Moscow life.
