Dostępność: na zamówienie Monographs on the subject of architects who are still in good health are commonly regarded as the equivalent of monuments to people who are still alive - they supposedly put their subjects on a divine pedestal and stamp their buildings and designs with the mark of 'eternity'. Brodsky's Oblako ('Cloud') Bar and Ice Pavilion no longer exist, and yet you'll find them in the journal you're now holding, and this gives them a kind of 'immortal' glory. However, periodicals such as our own cannot afford to sacrifice immediate relevance to current issues to a memorializing impulse. In the present case this immediate relevance is not simply a matter of the fact that Brodsky has been chosen to represent Russia with a one-man show at this year's Venice Bien-nale.

Literally all flats for the rich in Moscow are currently sold without interior walls - 'shell-and-core', just as offices. The only remaining difference between an office building and an apartment building is the presence of balconies or glazed veranda's and multiple stand pipes that enable a variety of interior solutions. This phenomenon is radically transforming the practice of housing design.

The highest prices were in the Ostozhenka district, and two Project Meganom architecture studio projects were specifically mentioned. $10,000 per square meter - a price comparable to London's Chelsea or Paris XVI Arrondisement districts. Moscow's elite apartment projects are quite modest compared with their foreign counterparts. True, they are well designed - their architecture is actually more up-to-date than exclusive projects in the West.
