Gorki House was designed by Atrium architects  and is integrated in a beautiful natural environment atop of a hill west of Moscow. The architects were commissioned to design a contemporary residence for a young couple and their kid, while maintaining a good relationship with the surrounding pine forest landscape.

The building features generous windows and a large number of terraces which make it connect well with the outdoors. Its shape is highly original, consisting of a clever and appealing game of volumes which seem to gradually unfold.


Architects: Atrium
Location: ,
Project team: Anton Nadtochiy, Vera Butko, Ekaterina Golovanova
Collaborators: “ALuTerra”, “Alexander Ney”
Project area: 731 sqm
Project year: 2004 – 2011
