Universal the Pavilion

Universal Pavilion for INSTITUTE OF URBAN PLANNING AND SYSTEM DESIGN

The plot allocated for development is located somewhat away from the historical part of the Park and is fenced on one side by planting tall trees. This allowed the author to create a project that resembles a bird with outstretched wings, which fits seamlessly into the Park landscape and minimizes the impact of modern architecture on historical buildings. The main rooms of the pavilion open through panoramic Windows to natural views, which creates a sense of comfort inside the building. The project has a social significance, creating a place of public attraction.

The impact of external space through visual penetration into the internal environment.

Search for a dynamic architectural form that fits seamlessly into the existing landscape.

Project Duration

Balagannaya square in Kolomenskoye Park, Moscow. Project - concept November-December 2019.

Operation Flow

The building of the multifunctional pavilion is located on a pre-defined section of elongated shape, facing the short sides of the road. The pavilion follows the geometry of the site with its shape in the plan and has 2 entrance groups. On the North side, a pedestrian road leads people to cafes. On the South side, groups of people get to the universal hall for holding public events - wedding banquets, conferences, seminars, and exhibitions. Both of these areas are connected by an internal corridor, which allows you to combine the functions of these rooms. Between them is a platform covered with glass, which protects from rain and snow. You can also sit on it for a Cup of coffee while enjoying the beautiful landscape. The Eastern side of the pavilion is separated from the rest of the Park by a wall of tall trees. All utility and process rooms open onto it. The cafe, multi-purpose hall and outdoor area are facing South with great views.The panoramic glazing of these rooms creates a sense of merging with nature.

Research

Sometimes you eat, drink coffee to maintain internal energy. Behind you is the firmament of the wall , and above you is the far- reaching console of the high ceiling. You don 't subconsciously feel anxious or apprehensive. Your gaze is directed towards the light coming from three sides. You can see an amazing landscape there. This calms you down and allows you to fully focus on your favorite process.

Inspiration

Kolomenskoye historical Park is a unique place where there are examples of ancient Russian architecture of different eras, which are located against the background of a surprisingly beautiful natural landscape. The creative intonation is set by the powerful music of Pink Floyd.
