The apartment block is located in the dense environment of the historical city centre of Moscow, near Ostozhenka Street. The objective of the project was to create a sense of privacy and openness simultaneously and to fill the apartments with light despite the proximity of surrounding buildings.
The façade’s pattern—and the character of the entire building—is defined by a combination of two types of windows. The windows of the first type are panoramic, flush with the plane of the façade, allowing one to observe the life of the entire street. The second type are made à la French balconies, recessed into the façade for added privacy: inside, you could stand by the window and remain unnoticed by passers-by.
To fit the building in the context of Kursovoy Lane and connect it with the historical neighbourhood, we came up with an allusion in the design of window lintels. Taking traditional local nalichniki, platbands, as a starting point, we proposed their modern reinterpretation. The façades are clad with Jura limestone cut narrowly to resemble brickwork.
During the development of the project concept, a site next to the house had not yet been built up. The project made provision for a building appearing there someday, so a firewall was erected on the border with the other site. It has an elaborate relief with thin slits that mimic windows.
