capacity. The residential area is outside the city center, it is very green and is full of architectural monuments of art nouveau. So the environment is very friendly and human scaled and creates a feeling of an old Moscow which is nice to live in. The idea was to create a building that will use the whole site while creating an inner courtyard for scholars to play. The building itself is wooden and should not burden the environment and the atmosphere. A school should be a place where children can feel themselves like in a countryside - happy and free to investigate the world around. Classes should have a lot of light and there should be a lot of space in school where children can play and use their imagination to transform the spaces

Museum project MArchI, 4year 2011
The decisive moment in choosing a theme for a museum project was a mistale found at Yandex.Maps while searching a free area in the center of Moscow. disappeared in the plan, but in the street view it can still be seen. Museum is the monument of a place. A monument for enither lost building in our city which can also work as a storagefor information about all destroyed historic houses. Main collection could consist of information garthered by ArchNadzor, MoskvaKotoroiNet, MAPS (and other organiations thas save our architectural heritage and collect data about the lost ones). A timeless place that can regenerate the surroundings and become a new city landmark. An activity point and a collectioin of memories about the city that does not exist anymoe so it begins to live in a museum space.

New Moscow area development Bachelor project MArchI, 4year 2012
Development territory is located in 40 km from the center, in Big Moscow area. The bachelor consists if two parts - urban development - new residential area project and typical housing for the district.The project had a real client, and his main points were declared as: - redevelopment of the area, creating comfortable environment for people of all age - new city has to be tolerant to the existing environment - maximise the usage of the land

Bachelor project MArchI, 4year 2012
of a new residential area in a Big Moscow territory
Main issue was to create a universal housing model, giving space for all family types. The house should be made of redesigned typical elements allowing to use them in a different order for a different situation. The elements stacked together create variable building height according to the context. This allows creating an interesting environment with complex perspective although using typical elements.

Moscow redevelopment MArchI, 5year 2013
district
Development territory is Lefortovo - a historical districs in Moscow 10 minutes away from center. Territory is full of architectural monuments and beautiful streets. Main problem in the area is existence of hufe area of former industrial factories. Kamer-Kollezhkiy ring out if the Sadovoye ring in 19th century was the periphery of Moscow where this factories were working. After extremely fast growthh of Moscow agglomeration, the ÂŤindustrial ringÂť became derelict useless territories which although are still polluting the city air.
Sortavala city redevelopment Diploma project MArchI, 6 year 2014
The project is based on idea of Decentralisation of territories anfd research on Linear urban strategies. This system is the most appropriate decision for situation in our country where all big cities are extremely centralised. Cities pull the activity on themselves including all infrastructure. This causes huge problems in cities around and almost makes living there a survival. Other fact that centralised acitivity makes the periphery practically deserted. Regions/countries/city districts focus all the infrastructure in their center, although the Borders should bear the the function. On the borders informational activity reaches its maximum level - two different regions recieve all possible characteristics from both sides which rise the level of activity and give space for a new formation (ex. any small European meet at the border and through the mixing we can see new cultural formation). So this way borders are no more dividing - they become perspective development directions, where unlimited motion and exchange is provided. Centralised systems are blocking themselves allowing only development.

Installation Greece, Vidos Island 2010
The installation was created during the Goroda architectural festival. Festival task was to create an object according to any philosophical thesis. In our project we tried to express the Jilles Deleuze’s «Rhizome» theory and develop a spatial composition. The construction was made of natural materials found into the center and creating the Object. Every piece of

Installation Arch Farm 2012
The installation was made during Goroda architectural festival. It took place at ArchFarm - a renovated farming complex 200 km from Moscow. Main task was that the participants should rethink in their objects festival theme which was ÂŤFireÂť. We analyzed the philosophical interpretations of the term and came to Heraclitus ideas. Fire as eternal motion. As a seen form of burning process - it is the most suitable that is an everlasting process, blazing dynamics of also understood outer space as a process of constant burning. So in our project we tried to freeze the moment and represent the constant motion. The edge of the sun or maybe an unknown star constantly rising/setting on the horizon. Or this is an enormous scale disc which has crashed into a frozen lake and now is glowing illuminating all around.

Installation Arch Farm 2012
The installation was created during the Goroda architectural festival in ArchFarm. The festival theme was «In the place. Together». The little chapel is a sacred plavce for nature. Chapel of a place. A little fragile construction in a shape of a house with a pitched roof. There’s no inner space, so one can just pass through the «concentration» but at the same time be in the environment and see all around.

2014
An artwork for ArteLaguna competition 2015 in Venice. The monument for the epoch that freely exists in time and space. The totem made by peoples hands with the found serve everyday life, but now it is a part of a monument, which carries its age and its story. It is made accidentally, in the way spontaneous motives appear in the modern environment. This motives appear in fencing and covering in extreme need, which are made only to serve the function, excluding the esthetic context. But as a result they form it and become its component. This is one of the main images of contemporary city environment in a context of our country.
