The National Centre RUSSIA

The project’s bionic architecture reflects Russia’s diverse visual identity. Its organic forms evoke natural landscapes, with a silhouette suggesting a soaring "Pokrov" or endless snowfields. Deliberately contrasting with Moscow City’s verticality, the building’s horizontal lines emphasize fluidity and motion. Lightweight, dynamic, and transparent, space creates an ethereal presence – architecture that seems to float rather than impose.

The Center will be complemented by a landscaped park with tree-lined alleys, water features, and fountains – addressing Moscow-City’s need for vibrant public recreation spaces. The greenery harmonizes urban and natural environments.

Abstract contemporary ornamentation on walls and ceilings nods to traditional lacework, a universal symbol of warmth, while the white color palette enhances the space’s purity and ceremonial grandeur. The Center’s adaptive media facade will display national symbols during holidays and artistic installations during cultural events. Its covered plaza, offering amphitheater seating with views of the Moskva River and open-air stage events, will rank among Moscow’s most impressive public spaces.

Beyond consolidating functions, the design prioritizes civic engagement. A sequence of spaces unfolds from the Krasnopresnenskaya Embankment and Moscow City approaches, through an entrance plaza, into the building’s soaring atrium.

Scheduled for completion in 2029, ATRIUM’s National center RUSSIA embodies forward-looking architecture through its futuristic form, cutting-edge technology, multifunctionality, and deep urban integration – poised to become a symbol of modern Russia.
