The project takes place in a former boiler-room building. The interior space is a collection of the old city materials: limestone, wood, plaster, steel, brass, mica and gold.
Spacial structure of the building adopts traditional Moscow chamber structure, where the ground level is made of stone and top level is wooden.
The ground level is a bright light space of a bar, decorated with flowers, upper level is a living room accompanying with music, furnished with vintage sittings and a little library.
The project site is located in one of Moscow’s courtyards, hidden from the city bustle.
This summer project was accomplished with a temporary outdoor structure.
Terrace with street fountain invites the passerby to engage with the aura of the space.
Fountain is a symbolical representation of the name of the place (Voda means water in Russian).
