A residential quarter by Brusnika
About the project
The quarter is located within the boundaries of Nekrasova, Kamenskaya, Pisareva, and Semьи Shamshinykh streets. During the NEP period, this site was occupied by a factory that produced more than thirty types of soap, some of which were exported. After industrial facilities were relocated from the central part of Novosibirsk, the site was redeveloped for housing. On Brusnika’s website, the project is described as “a quarter with a history.” Blank was responsible for the adaptation of the concept, design documentation, working documentation, and construction supervision. According to the documentation published on the developer’s website, some phases of the quarter have already been completed and commissioned, while the next stages are still being developed.
Concept
The project proposes the construction of towers of various heights and urban villas. The residential complex has the character of a multifunctional space. The built-in non-residential features are geared towards both home residents and outside traffic. The target audience of the project is diverse, so both public and private spaces are needed. The total volume of the building is connected by a stylobate, in the above-ground part of which there will be retail premises for shops and service enterprises, while the underground space can accommodate up to 775 parking spaces.
Realization
A distinctive feature of this project is the landscaping of the entire surface of the roof; in urban villas, the green roof will become completely private. The architects included two-level penthouses with roof terraces in the planning structure of the urban villas. There are four in each house. Photos by: Brusnika
