About Equitorus Il Centro Sportivo Equestre
Equitorus deve soddisfare tutti i rigorosi requisiti sanitari e tecnologici per la manutenzione, l'addestramento e la preparazione dei cavalli che gareggiano ai massimi livelli. Il complesso contiene l'intera infrastruttura necessaria per le esigenze di vita e ricreazione dei proprietari di cavalli durante il loro tempo libero. L'elemento più notevole del complesso è la sua grande arena coperta fatta di strutture in legno incollate e con una galleria a forma di L con posti a sedere per gli spettatori e caffè. L'oggetto è percepito come un contrasto rispetto all'ambiente naturale. Sembra che qualcuno abbia steso per terra un tappetino colorato fatto in casa.

- 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.
