ArchMoscow 2008 ran-up the model

This is the model of future skyscraper. It is not block of flats, actualy, it is block of houses. Every one thing of this building is realy separate house, made in it's own style. One of them is poor, next one is gold, another one is in ancient style. It has enough space for wind of fresh area, gardens on each levels or cuple of trees. This idea copy traditional russian house built from logs. But in this model log construction rises to clouds.

This year it was smaller and simple. Big brands surprised nothing. Most often question is, are they still alive and sound? But has not strong concepts and fresh ideas. Owners see to visitors woeful eyes and stay proud being there, sometimes presenting empty space.

_ Lago Maggiore first look of the site and first ideas

The site situated far deep in mountains, far of Lago, 700 m. above sea-level, and 500 m. above the lake. But it has nice view directly to Lago Maggiore, in this moment it is cloudy. All area built on rural tradition houses, but out of the 300 m. area around the lake possible to build exactly what you whant. Any style and any design. So, becouse of our first impressions of this site, idea of water flows goes from top of the mountain, appear. Big rock on the site allow us create something with suspended parts. In consort with Anna Sokolova.

Parthenon rebuilding overlook

I was forty when I first time seen Parthenon in live. I was surprised, it is under reconctruction. Since 1975... Big kran still stands inside the temple, marble block das't has order and stored everywhere around... In ancient time it was build in ten years, without mashins, kran, computers and historikal investigations, of course. I guess it is to slow and endless. But Parthenon is allways perfect, in spite of condition, thanks to Iktinos and Kallikrates.

2009 Milan exhibition

Before next 2010 Milan exhibition I just would like to remind how it was last time. Besides furniture, architecture of stends was very attractiv. Bicause it first, you see, when you walk in front of exponents. Sometimes it has realy fresh design. Perhaps, this stends idea very appropriate for smoll house project:) Anyways, it's never boring.

10th Architectural Biennale - common impressions

Massimiliano Fuksas - Fiera Milano International

First time I heard in detail about this project in Moscow, at Fuksas's lecture about his works. He explained about scale of this complex, about morphology of huge glass river between pavilions. That, every triangular glass piece has his own mesurment and absultely individualy. He sayd great thanks for italian labours, who help him carefully assemble every piece. All of us, who was on this lecture, was under his aura of professionalism and creation.
