Neighborhood History
In working on the café interior, I referenced the history of the Terekhovo district where the location is situated. Initially, Terekhovo was a small village: its original layout consisted of six yards where eleven people lived. Of particular interest was the enduring tradition of the local residents—tossing traditional green wreaths into the river on Trinity Day.
The project site was chosen as a space located on the first line of a landscaped embankment, characterized by active bicycle, pedestrian, and vehicular traffic, and situated close to business and premium residential complexes. Key features of the space include panoramic glazing offering views of the embankment—maintaining a visual connection with the landscape and nature—and six-meter-high ceilings, which allow for the integration of high decorative elements, greenery, suspended lighting fixtures, and volumetric structures.
