Recreational Area Design for the Residential Complex “Palace Facade”

Best Student Project of Public Space

About the project (provided by the applicant)
The project for the landscaping of the “Palace Facade” residential complex is set within a unique historical context—surrounded by the palace and park ensembles of Strelna and the Konstantin Palace. The name of the complex itself became a key factor in shaping the artistic image and spatial solution.

The concept reinterprets the planning principles of palace ensembles. The master plan is organized like a palace: movement along the “corridor” leads from a “hall” to a “room,” i.e., from one functional zone to another. Each zone is named in the spirit of the palace era, while its function is clearly and contemporarily expressed.

This approach not only creates a comfortable space for residents but also emphasizes the historical character of the site, complementing the modern environment.
