Agalarov Estate | SL Project

All unusual in this house. Starting from the place where he built the village Agalarov Estate absolutely does not fit in the suburban format. It has a private Golf club and residences are scattered among the fields. Instead of the generally accepted working "grid" and high fences - free location, great distances between houses and stunning views of the lake, lawn, forest. The village consists of typical buildings in the classical style, but for this project, an exception was made: it is not a classic and not typical. The authors have created a building eye-catching: clear form it looks like an architectural model, at the same time looks like a flying saucer. The customer, Director of the fashion House Raschini Sergey Vikulin, how long have you been this way, " says Alex.

When he came to us, in General, imagine how the house should look like: a lot of travelling with a family in Spain, looked modern villas, which in this country a lot, including buildings Bureau A-cero, the head of which, by Joaquin Torres, personally". The custom house is not only externally, but also by the structure. "Extended in length, and it all perforatum, like cheese, " explains the architect. - There are no completely isolated premises, from the  one can always see another".

On the first floor of various functional spaces are located along the axis. First there is a huge double-height living room, out through the double-sided fireplace visible to the dining room, from which in turn, through the glass partitions visible kitchen. From the kitchen Windows overlook the pool. He, of course, isolated - it is a special climatic zone - however large glass openings make it part of the interior.

The idea ligament spaces from the first level goes to the second: the master bathroom is between the two bedrooms, male and female, each with a great looking bathroom stained glass. Thus the three areas combined into one planted along the glass bamboo reduces transparency. The ground and first floors linked by a glass vertically through the portholes. In the basement, where there is a lounge area and a bar, gets broken water basin sunlight on the walls and creates beautiful reflections. The idea works. Interestingly, the "mastermind" Joaquin Torres found a place in this project. On one of the terraces, where there is a summer dining room is the furniture designed by the architect for factory Vondom. "So we brought home a piece of his work," says Alexey Nikolashin.
