Contextual urban infill in central Moscow

I’M MOSCOW Residential Complex

Location: Moscow, Russia
Client: PSN Group

Program:
43.000 sqm residential complex in two seven story buildings

The Shluzavoy Kanal ensemble, now labelled I AM MOSCOW, is located within a courtyard in central Moscow. It replaces low value sheds. The massing and internal layouts were already approved when MLA+ was asked to raise the projects value and marketability through a re-design of the facades.

The MLA+ facade strategy is pragmatic and spends the money where it matters most. The primary facade with a high level of detailing faces the strategic locations, where the project is visible from the city. The courtyard facade unifies the diverse massing with an elegant facade order. A simple secondary facade faces the surrounding outer buildings of the block.

Following the successful redesign, MLA+ is responsible for the renewed planning application, the technical design and specification of the façade and the supervision of the construction process.

Stages:
2015 Façade design all stages
2016 AGR Planning application
2016 – 17 Site supervision
2016 – 17 Under construction

Team:

MLA+: Markus Appenzeller, Olga Chulkova, Joost Kok, Gerard Maccreanor, Athena Papadopoulou, Martin Probst, Ana Skachokova
