Hadir Al Koshta — Tue, 25 Nov 2025 07:00:00 +0000

The building is located on a very tight site, surrounded by residential blocks, a music school and nursery in Moscow’s historic city centre, off Arbat Street, the main, pedestrianized shopping street which runs for almost one kilometre through the city. AI’s work involved the complete demolition of an existing 4-storey office block, replacing it with a new 7-storey office building with a single level underground car park and public space at the base of the building.

Здание расположено в плотной застройке, в окружении многоэтажных домов, музыкальной школы и детского сада, в историческом центре Москвы, рядом с улицей Арбат — главной пешеходной и торговой улицей километровой длины. Работа студии AI подразумевает полный снос существующего четырехэтажного офисного здания, и замену его новым семиэтажным с одноуровневой подземной парковкой и общественным пространством у основания здания. Граница участка определила форму здания в плане, предлагая два прямолинейных объема, которые объединены под углом и обслуживаются общим лифтом, занимающим пограничное пространство в углу между объемами. Фасад отыгрывает и подчеркивает место слияния двух блоков измененным, диагональным ритмом покрывающих здание мраморных пластин Jura. Оконные панели утоплены по сравнению с ребрами на 40 см для обеспечения большей приватности и отражения солнечного света.
