Text description provided by the architects. Architect Totan Kuzembaev, one of the brightest representatives of the so-called Soviet Paper Architecture of 1980’s, managed to find a real customer only in the late 1990’s, when he met Alexander Ezhkov, the owner of the Resort Pirogovo – a closed elite settlement of 100 hectares, located 20 km north-east from the border of Moscow (Moscow Ring Road) in Ostashkovskoe highway, on the shore of the artificial Klyazma water storage. The Resort was founded in 1960 on the initiative of Nikita Khrushchev. In 2002, the new private owners decided to make a full reconstruction of the Resort. The master plan and the development rules were designed by an architect Eugene Asse. The best architects of Moscow are involved in the construction of the Resort, but most of the buildings here are designed by Totan Kuzembaev.
