Development and Approval of Low-Poly and High-Poly Models by the Moscow Department of Urban Policy
Location
The site is located in the Dorogomilovsky District, near Kievsky Railway Station and Berezhkovskaya Embankment. This is an area with high pedestrian activity: the main routes to the complex come from the railway station, the metro, and the embankment.
This positioning determined a development consisting of three main buildings: a megastructure, a dominant tower, and a low-rise volume that greets visitors arriving from the railway station and Kievskaya metro station.
Design concept
The main building is conceived as a city gate — a prominent landmark adjacent to the railway station and rail infrastructure. The central arch opens the complex toward the city and shapes its distinctive silhouette.
The form is based on two interconnected ellipses. The first creates the building's volume and central opening. The second echoes its geometry, transforms the facade pattern, and enhances the sense of movement.
The vertical tower continues the theme of lines that support the geometry of the volume. Together, the two volumes form a unified ensemble: the arch organizes the space, while the tower completes the composition within the urban panorama.

Function
The complex consists of three buildings. A low-rise volume greets people arriving from the railway station and metro, forms the entrance to the site, and creates a gradual transition in scale from low-rise to high-rise development.
Inside the arch, a cascade of terraces connected to the office spaces is arranged. Employees will be able to step outside throughout the day to work and hold meetings in the open air. Thanks to their positioning, the terraces also open up views of the city.
Facades
Light facade glazing emphasizes the integrity and plasticity of the architectural volumes. Dark sections at the ends and in the arch curvature zones accentuate the depth of the facade and make the geometry more expressive.
The red color on the tower's end facades creates a striking accent and enhances the tower's vertical silhouette. It is a reference to Moscow's color code.
Landscaping
The landscaping concept is built on different states of carbon: graphite defines the character of the main boulevard, which cuts through the site like a pencil stroke; diamond — the image of bright welcome plazas at the intersections of the primary routes
where allée tree plantings and water art installations form points of attraction; the "coal" zones are more intimate seating areas along the boulevard, surrounded by dense landscaping and designed for quiet conversation and relaxation.
