This large residential complex, in Moscow’s central Tverskoy district,
is made up of seventeen private villas, the work of Architectural
Bureau WALL. A different architectural solution was developed for
each building’s facade, consisting sometimes of walls with arches
repeated on several levels, sometimes of elevations consisting of
rectangular spaces. The green spaces were designed by landscape
design studio Arteza, which structured the communal garden with
plenty of plants and shrubs arranged in flowerbeds: the seasonal
changes in the chosen vegetation’s foliage colours balance the
white marble facades of the villas.
KA2 Light Architecture contributed to the complex’s lighting
design with its choice of Plin 1.1 bollards in an anthracite finish and a
customized height of 50 cm for the garden area. The bollards, with
their simple and minimalist design, feature a head angled at 45° for
a controlled downward light emission. Positioned at the edge of the
flowerbeds, the fixtures illuminate the walkways, ensuring the safety
of the paths leading to the entrances to the villas.
