New horizontal red carpets (concept-design) I designed for the Pushkinsky Theatre in Moscow, Russia. The red pods would allow for LED integration, and would feature the latest theatre and movie/showing on the facade.
Here, the rendering is depicted in red, to illustrate the idea of the ephemeral red-carpets, which harkens back to earlier days of this building's original luster. The cacophony of pods, (stationary, and floating) are an abrupt facade confrontation between the original problem of the building, in that it exemplified the ill-advised aesthetic choices in Russian Modernism. Subtle ques, however, were maintained, such as the difficult diagonal roof overhang. Here, obviously the roof line extends into a park-front eponymous of the writer Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin. The bridge over the street is treated with new care unifying the facade aesthetic and serves as a dramatic link to the park on the lobby level. Being a concept, it still needs the re-installation of the wonderful typographical signs found on the original signage.

Close monitoring of the competition for the redux of this theatre is expected. Visual ques here and concepts are under copyright. The picture of the building original was taken from Flickr.
