Architectural
bureau «Ostozhenka»
Student project, 2017
Stroganov Moscow State University of Arts and Industry
The project idea is expressed in the design of the book itself. Based on the principle
of architecture of Alexander Skokan: an unusual configuration of curved or vice versa, concave surfaces, pointed or cut corners.Terracotta color conveys the texture of the facade. On the back of the cover there is a panorama of Prechistenskaya embankment, which unites the whole book and coincides in meaning with text blocks.
The book is a long asymmetrical cover, to which four text blocks are attached. The first three blocks contain a detailed description of the buildings, the latter is devoted to the architectural bureau. Due to the soft cover, books can be viewed both together and separately, changing their layout and combining different spreads. Thanks to the asymmetric edge, the book can change its shape.
