Z-House residential complex
The plot on the site of the former Moscow accordion factory named after the Red Army, lost among the lanes of Plyushchikha, miraculously remains undeveloped to this day. Located near the Savvinskaya embankment and a large park area on Maiden's Field, it is a rare example of a "quiet center" in the capital, and in an environmentally friendly area. The spot of construction is skillfully carved out between existing buildings - hence its non-standard shape, which required an equally non-standard approach to forming the architectural volume. The blocks that form it not only have different heights, but also different configurations, "descending" towards the embankment with an arrhythmic zigzag, to which the house owes its name. Thanks to this, luxurious panoramic views open from each floor to both sides: the western facade overlooks the river, the eastern one - the skyscraper constellation of "Moscow-City", with another "star" being the high-rise portion of the new house when viewed from the water.

The dynamic zigzag rhythm, gradually increasing its pace, continues horizontally from the north and south facades, alternating between glass and brick in the pattern. Presenting itself from the viewpoints only as original framing for giant window portals, here the brick reveals itself in all its rich decorative features. The complex laying of cornices is inspired by examples from Moscow's industrial heritage. This is a kind of tribute to the factory that was once located here. And the characteristic outlines of the zigzag can be interpreted as a symbolic representation of fur, stirred by the hand of an invisible accordion player. The accordion is a type of harmonica, an instrument that creates harmony of sounds. In this case, its image helped to create genuine harmony of volumes. Not only in itself, but also in the context of the surrounding mixed development: amid buildings from different eras, Z-House "plays" the history of modernity.
