Polyot is a restaurant interior located in Moscow. The design recalls the setting of a science fiction film. Sleek steel shapes and portholes at the entrance make the space resemble the cabin of a space shuttle. Minimalism is a guiding principle, so patterns and ornaments are absent from the walls and from the design elements. Large shining objects are used instead. Two silver figures, each 3.6 meters tall, stand on symmetric columns at the entrance. All furniture and lighting were custom made for the project.

Unique Properties
The interior of the ‘Polyot’ restaurant reminds the scenery for a sci-fi movie. The sleek steel shapes and portholes at the entrance make the room look like the cabin of a space shuttle. One of the main principles in the interior of ‘Polyot’ is minimalism. There is a lack of decor to which the audience in Moscow restaurants is so used, no patterns and ornaments on the walls and in design elements. Instead there are large shining objects.

Design Challenge
The main problem of futurism projects is the feeling of coldness. Our task was to create - a cozy futurism.
Project Duration
The project started in May 2018 and finished in July 2019. The restaurant is located at: 2 Khodynsky Boulevard, Russian Federation, Moscow, 125167
Operation Flow
This restaurant is already open for guests and successfully operates under the guidance of a restaurateur - Kira Baybakova.
Research
We studied the many futuristic movements of the 20th century to understand and create a restaurant in the style of "modern futurism". The greatest influence on us was made by the book "Dune" - this determined the main trend of the restaurant - to create the feeling of being on another planet.
Inspiration
We wanted to convey energy, speed, strength and dynamism to give the guests an opportunity to experience new emotions and futuristic vibes. Clear, but unusual geometry served as an important principle in the creation of this space. We used streamlined shapes, curved lines and asymmetrical angles.
Huge silver Martian goddesses like figures are installed on symmetric columns at the entrance. They can be easily placed in the decorations of the Hollywood movie about new civilizations. The interior does not press with its seriousness, but on the contrary inspires and gives wings.
