Alyona Kuznetsova. The Voice of the Amur

MV-PROJECT has won a competition for the façades of the Khabarovsk Regional Academic Musical Theater. The architects took a bold approach, proposing a striking wave-like envelope inspired by the waters of the Amur, along with landscaped rooftop terraces. The concept won an absolute majority of the public vote. We take a closer look at the proposal, its feasibility, and its rich imagery, which invites associations with the work of Ivan Aivazovsky and Katsushika Hokusai.
