The Design

About Equitorus Le Centre De Sports Équestres

Equitorus est tenu de répondre à toutes les exigences sanitaires et technologiques strictes pour l'entretien, la formation et la préparation des chevaux concourant au plus haut niveau. Le complexe contient toute l'infrastructure nécessaire aux besoins de vie et de loisirs des propriétaires de chevaux pendant leur temps libre. L'élément le plus remarquable du complexe est sa grande arène intérieure faite de structures en bois collées et comportant une galerie en forme de L avec des sièges pour spectateurs et un café. L'objet est perçu comme un contraste par rapport à l'environnement naturel. Il semble que quelqu'un ait étendu un tapis tissé à la maison coloré sur le sol.

Production Technology: Idea of giving an emotionally saturated image for a purely utilitarian object has been realized through the use of two-colored roofing & facade rhythmically organized geometric decor. Object is perceived as a contrast object in relation to natural environment. It seems as if someone had spread colorful homespun mat on ground. Huge glass planes work on contrasts,emphasizing arches end facades & connecting interior with exterior together. Facades of complex are lined with wooden planks of varying widths. These boards,creating a unique decoration on facades, are painted in different shades.
Design Challenge: Almost half of total area of Pushkin district is covered with forests. Exceptionally favorable combination of natural factors & absence of large industrial enterprises let to think about area as one of the most environmentally friendly in suburbs (museum-estate Muranovo - famous poets Baratynsky & Tiutchev; Museum-Reserve Abramtsevo, where in 70-90's of 19 century - Abramtsevo artistic circle-one of places of origin & formation of so-called "neo-Russian style"). Natural environment & unique history of neighboring villages predetermined integrated approach in formation of concept of urban development.
Research: Main goal-creation a unique complex that met all the stringent sanitary & technological requirements for post, maintenance & preparation of horses for participation in competitions of the highest level. Also, complex must contain the entire infrastructure necessary for living & recreation of horse owners in their spare time from training & competition. Another goal-customer set up before creating the complex was conducting hippotherapy sessions for social, psychological & physical rehabilitation of disabled people.
Inspiration: The natural environment and the unique history of the neighboring villages predetermined the integrated approach in the formation of the concept of urban development. In the one project it was necessary to immediately solve three tasks: functional, ecological and cultural identity.
Project Duration: Pushkin district, Moscow region, Russian Federation
Operation Flow: The key areas of activity & socio-occupational importance to design and implement Equitorus: Promotion & development of equestrian sports and horse breeding; Promotion of horse breeding & equestrian sports industry - the possibility of introducing children to a healthy lifestyle; Support for equestrian sports, by virtue of its social significance - a promising area of charity; Master classes by leading domestic & foreign competitors; Junior School with affordable training policy; Conducting competitions, including the Olympic disciplines.
