It was not by chance that Roman Leonidov named his creation Parallel House. Armed with a minimum range of techniques, by using only parallels and perpendiculars, squares and rectangles, cubes and parallelepipeds, without any diagonals or curves, the architect was able to create an extremely powerful “rock-n-roll” image. “My houses make aggressive and modern statements – Roman Leonidov proudly explains – In addition, in this particular instance, this laconic house is a portrait of its owner, a self-sufficient person who stands firmly on his two feet, who knows what he wants, and, most importantly, knows what he can or cannot do.”

The house is a large one – its total area is over 800 square meters plus a basement floor with a billiard room and a wine cellar. The position of the house on the land site was conditioned by the client’s desire to shut off from the highway, at the same time leaving enough space for a beautiful landscape. The plan of the house remotely resembles the U letter; it is turned to the meadow and tall trees, the side wings embracing the grand yard and forming a natural shelter for the privacy of its residents.
