Yekaterinburg: An open-air architecture museum
(12 Jun 2018) LEADIN:
It's often called the world's largest open air constructivist museum. The Russian city of Yekaterinburg is home to around 140 constructivist buildings.
Tourists and football fans are set to roam through its streets when Russia's World Cup kicks off this month.
STORYLINE:
It's a combination of modern technology and engineering methods with the ethos of Soviet Communism.
Constructivism - as it's known - was an innovative architectural style that became popular during the Soviet industrial boom in the 1920s.
Constructivism in Sverdlovsk - as the city was known during Soviet times - started in the 1930s.
Subordinating to Soviet ideology aimed at creating a new world, many architects implemented daring projects across the Soviet Union.
As a booming industrial centre, Yekaterinburg became one of the biggest magnets.
Pre-revolutionary wooden houses on its main street were replaced by 'City of the Future' forms, which symbolised the new social structure.
Here, the creation of new world was taking place through these functional structures, says historian Igor Yankov.
Here, we can see a living area of different quality. And we can see various social services detached: that's a cafeteria, that's a club, that's a bathhouse, that's a laundry, that's a kindergarten and so on, and so on.
One of the most famous examples of constructivism in Yekaterinburg is the Dynamo Sports Centre.
Shaped like a moving ship, it's located on a small peninsula on a city lake.
V-shaped bay windows resemble a bow, windowed balconies look like lifeboats, and a roof structure on top of the main pavilion could almost be a captain's bridge.
Nowadays, the monument is the centre of ongoing debate - many fear a proposed new church nearby may destroy the architectural homogeneity of the area.
The Printing House with its continuous windows, stretching along the entire perimeter, a rounded façade supported by a single column and protruding stairwells encased in semi-circular glass cages, used to accommodate printing facilities and newspaper offices.
Now it's occupied by cafés, a bookstore and a nightclub.
The General Post Office was designed in the shape of a tractor to glorify agricultural workers.
It initially housed a kindergarten, an 800-seat radio theatre and rooms for hobby groups as well as an intercity phone station, telegraph and post office that's still in operation today.
The Post Office, I found it a very striking landmark, says Hanna Nabila, a visitor from Indonesia.
Because it's obvious, it's located in the centre. It's such a great representative.
Lenin Street and its surroundings also host a series of residential complexes, called 'Towns,' which were built for particular professions.
Builders' Town for construction workers, Justice Town for judges and penitentiary workers, Medical Town for doctors, and - the most famous of them all - the Chekists' Town, for employees of the secret police. Cheka, later known as the KGB.
The Chekists' Town's central architectural landmark is Iset Hotel, a former hotel-type dormitory, built in the shape of a semi-circle and resembling a sickle.
Constructivist housing was full of experiments that affected people's lives.
There were no kitchens or bathrooms in the apartments, as everyone was supposed to eat in common cafeterias, wash clothes at a common laundry and bath in a common bath.
Chekists' Town is also widely known by locals for underground tunnels, which are surrounded by sinister urban legends.

Boris Yeltsin Presidential Center (Yekaterinburg, Russia)
Boris Yeltsin Presidential Center is a multi-purpose center that combines socio-cultural, commercial and leisure activities. It follows the design of Ralph Appelbaum Associates (RAA).
ACCIONA Producciones y Diseño is responsible for the museographic implementation of the permanent exhibition dedicated to the figure of Boris Yeltsin as first president of the Russian Federation. The itinerary of the exhibition is symbolically divided into 7 rooms, each one dedicated to a phase in the creation of contemporary Russia, through scenographic recreations that reconstruct key areas of its history (meeting room of the Politburo, a street in Moscow, an apartment, among others). A large number of audiovisual productions and interactives complete the experience in the rooms.
The visit ends with an area called “Freedom Gallery”. This room,
dedicated to the most important achievement of Yeltsin’s government, focuses on the testimonies of personalities and people on the street, and gives all visitors the opportunity to leave their own freedom-related message in the interactive “What Freedom means to Me”.
The Museum has received the European Museum of the Year Award 2016 –in the Kenneth Hudson category– for its “exceptional and daring achievement, challenging common perceptions of museums in society.
Future Yekaterinburg - Concert hall for Ural Philharmonic Orchestra by Zaha Hadid
Zaha Hadid Architects has won a competition to design the Sverdlovsk Philharmonic Concert Hall in Yekaterinburg, Russia.
Designed as a new home for the Ural Philharmonic Orchestra, the venue will contain a 1,600-seat concert hall and a smaller 400-seat chamber-music hall.
The two concert halls will be suspended within the steel structure of the building's roof, which takes its form from the shape of sound waves.
Echoing the physical aspects of sound waves, the design of the new philharmonic concert hall is based on the properties of musical sound resonance creating wave vibrations in a continuous smooth surface, said Zaha Hadid Architects.
The design re-interprets these physical acoustic properties to define spaces for the auditoria that are suspended within the canopy, appearing to float above the new civic plaza that is both the lobby of the Philharmonic Concert Hall and an enclosed urban square.
Below the concert halls, a publicly accessible lobby and atrium space will be shaped by the forms of the venues above.
The main features in this lobby are the volumes of the two auditorium, says Christos Passas, project director at Zaha Hadid Architects in a video released by the practice.
The grand auditorium and the smaller auditorium come together to create an inverted topography that signals and signifies the movement of visitors and other guests alike through the public spaces.
The new venue will be built alongside the existing Sverdlovsk Philharmonic building, which it will replace, and the Weiner Gardens. It has been designed to tie the buildings and green spaces on the block together.

【EXPO70】Pavilions seeing from monorail; the Olympic of Architecture 建物オリンピック
2019年1月15日@万博記念公園
Expo’70 Commemorative Park@Suita,Osaka
Expo '70 (日本万国博覧会 Nihon Bankoku Hakuran-kai) was a world's fair held in Suita, Osaka, Japan, between March 15 and September 13, 1970. The theme of the Expo was Progress and Harmony for Mankind. In Japanese, Expo '70 is often referred to as Osaka Banpaku (大阪万博 Ōsaka Banpaku). This was the first world's fair held in Japan.
Two main principles informed the master plan. The first was the idea that the wisdom of all the peoples of the world would come together in this place and stimulate ideas; the second was that it would be less of an exposition and more of a festival. The designers thought that unlike previous expositions they wished to produce a central, unifying, Festival Plaza where people could meet and socialise. They called this the Symbol Zone and covered it and the themed pavilions with a giant space frame roof.
The site of Expo '70 is now Expo Commemoration Park. Almost all pavilions have been demolished, but a few memorials remain, including part of the roof for Festival Plaza designed by Tange. The most famous of the still-intact pieces is Okamoto Taro's Tower of the Sun. The former international art museum pavilion designed by Kiyoshi Kawasaki was used as the building for the National Museum of Art, Osaka until March 2004 (the museum moved to downtown Osaka in November 2004).
Additionally, there is a time capsule that is to be left for 5,000 years and opened in the year 6970. The capsule was donated by Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. The concept creating time capsules at world's fairs started with the two Westinghouse Time Capsules, which are to be opened in 6939.
Osaka successfully bid for Expo 2025 alongside Yekaterinburg, Russia and Baku, Azerbaijan. However, the world’s fair will not reuse the park space, and will instead be hosted on Yumeshima island in Konohana, on the waterfront of Osaka Bay.

Russia: Graffiti art gallery for the blind unveiled in Yekaterinburg
A brail ‘graffiti gallery’ dedicated to visually impaired stars including musician Ray Charles, athlete Marle Runyan and programmer Mikhail Pozhidaev, was unveiled in Yekaterinburg on Saturday.
SOT, Andrei Kolokolov, Artist and Author, (Russian): We just thought, how it is possible to make a picture that can be read only in cooperation with blind people? I mean, if we look at this picture now, we can see a picture only. If blind people come closer and touch it, they will read text only. When we are talking and hang out altogether they can tell us what the text is about and we can describe what picture we see. So it seemed to be a really good idea that could unite people.
SOT, Andrei Kolokolov, Artist and Author, (Russian): Generally speaking, there is a story in each picture, about a sportsman, an IT engineer, and a musician. The meanings intertwine and help us to come together. Something like that.

1-
Built between 1554 and 1561 and situated in the heart of Moscow, St. Basil’s Cathedral has been among the top tourist attractions in Russia. It is not the building’s interior artifacts that attract visitors, but rather the cathedral’s distinctive architecture. Designed to resemble the shape of a bonfire in full flame, the architecture is not only unique to the period in which it was built but to any subsequent period. There is no other structure on earth quite like St. Basil’s Cathedral.

Founded in 1764 by Catherine the Great, the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia is a massive museum of art and culture showing the highlights of a collection of over 3 million items spanning the globe. The collections occupy a large complex of six historic buildings including the Winter Palace, a former residence of Russian emperors.

The Kremlin is a must-see attraction for anyone visiting Moscow. Home to the nation’s top governmental offices, the walled enclosure also houses four cathedrals built in the 15th and 16th century as well as several notable museums. The 250-acre grounds include the Armoury, filled with royal treasures of the past, and the Diamond Fund Exhibition, a collection of jewelry that includes a 190-carat diamond given to Catherine the Great.

Once the capital of several Russian principalities, Suzdal is the jewel of Russia’s “Golden Ring,” ancient cities that the country has preserved as living museums of Russia’s cultural past. Those who wish to experience the best of Russia’s historic architecture, full of onion-dome topped kremlins, cathedrals and monasteries, will find it in Suzdal. Dating back to 1024, the entire city is like a large open-air museum that transports visitors back in time.
