Unfortunately only few of fellow moskovitz will have the chance to see this property come to real world because it is located in a close property which holds hundreds of million dollar residences like capital hill residence.

the name of the client is not a misery because the name of the project capital hill gives it away cleary, of course if you live in moscow .

The problems oriented from the nature of this design are complicated, but it pushes people to get more innovative. As a result, a lot of unheard solutions will come up and be executed. I think those solutions will be imitated by many people in the future and maybe some of them will be industry standards.

I think this matters most.

By the way, actual building will have slight differences, but yet again, you may never know=).

I actually really like it, with the exeption of the gun tower. The free form shapes in the interior, complimented by the awsome furnature is very classy. So what its futuristic, thats what architecture should be about anyone. Zaha is leading the world into the future.
Stop bagging her out, if you actually bothered to look at the design all you so called architecture students or know it alls, you see how it utalises every aspect, making it functional to.

oh by the way i love the seamless glass.

oh and the space ship look..

The omnipresent Zaha Hadid never fails to amaze some of us mear mortals. whether you love her or loath her she will no doubt be one of the most influential design figures of the 21st century. Her aproach to structural design analysis and research and development into new and improved ways of not only manufacturing but applications of new products is in itself outstanding.
