"Eventually Everything Connects"

Architectural exercise performed for a typical private residential lot in Bahrain, looking for alternative designs mainly in terms of lot occupation, privacy and identity. An inward looking house which follows the old Bahraini tradition of privacy and flexibility. The lines are simple, geometric and accentuate horizontality. Decorative elements are scarce in respect to the ancient muslim rule of decorum and humbleness towards neighbours. The inside reveals a very different reality: spacious fluidity, filled with natural light, facing a private fresh inner garden. Most spaces are flexible in function and daily use.

A new space was added to the Pushkinsky Cinema Hall. Not only an interior but also an exterior space, generated within an atmosphere of visual projections and reflections filtered and enriched with the use of specific, manipulated and advanced materials provided by Dupont®. The regional, geographic and climate context provided the inspirational base to fulfill our ambition on creating an icon for the MIFF1 in the center of Moscow. Therefore, the incorporation of temperature, water and the seasonal change it provides, in addition to the poetic inclusion of the historical and cultural background of cinema, theatre and russian writers to the design concept, generated a dramatic piece of architecture that becomes itself a depth critic on the projected vision and reflected perception of the Russian People and Russian Culture.
