About Oat Wreath Конен Павилион

Конен павилион е част от новосъздадения конен център. Обектът е разположен върху културното наследство и е защитен от културна зона на историческия ансамбъл на изложбата. Основна архитектурна концепция е изключването на масивни капитални стени в полза на прозрачни дървени елементи от дантела. Основният мотив на орнамента на фасадата е стилизиран ритмичен образец под формата на житни уши или овес. Тънките метални колони почти неусетно поддържат светлинните лъчи на залепения дървен покрив, който се повдига нагоре, като завършването е под формата на стилизиран силует на главата на коня.

Production Technology
The building of the pavilion is a large-span structure covered with glued wooden beams. The end of the beam is an individual architectural element - a stylized silhouette of the horse's head. Facades - horizontal wooden boards, located in two transverse directions complex rhythmic pattern, reminiscent of wheat ears or oat. The surfaces of all structural and facing elements remain natural color, exposing the texture of wood.
Design Challenge
Conditions of construction on the territory of the object of cultural heritage excludes the possibility of construction of capital buildings and structures. This determined the overall architectural-spatial and constructive solution of the equestrian pavilion. The choice made in favor of creating a spatial structure from the environmental and renewable materials.
Research
Historically: significant urban area of the city. The first buildings appeared on this site in 1937-39 as part of a large urban complex of the All-Union Agricultural Exhibition. They built of short-lived materials and by 1954 replaced by capital buildings - pavilions for various functional purposes. The existing stables, which are subject to reconstruction and restoration, for the full functioning require the creation of a new spectacular pavilion-arena.
Inspiration
Main goal - organically inscribe a large-sized large-span structure in historical ensemble of pavilions built in 1954. Transparent wooden lace of outer walls designed for the dematerialization of the volume to dissolve it against the background of existing landscape. Main facades ornament motif resembles the thick of intertwined wood branches and ears stylized in the spirit of socialist realism, referring to genius loci of VDNKH (exhibition of national economy achievements) - object of cultural heritage and protect cultural zone.
Project Duration
2015-2017, Moscow city, VDNKH, Russia.
Operation Flow
