The exposition "The Birth of Scale" will open at the National Centre RUSSIA on March 1. The chief curator of the exposition, architect Andrei Chernikhov, shared what awaits visitors. According to him, the exposition will be a platform where guests can learn how architects have worked through different times.

"People, from housewives to academics, should see how architects worked in the 15th century. Back then they designed with compasses, and today they work in VR reality," noted Andrei Chernikhov.

The exposition will feature vintage drawing tables from the 19th century and models illustrating the design process. Special attention will be given to Russian avant-garde — a movement that has entered the world architectural culture.

A separate section will be dedicated to the interconnection of architecture and art. "It is important to show how art at different times participates in architecture. This connection is little known to many," concluded the exposition curator.

The exposition will present projects that have been replicated by leading world architects. Among the items are models of projects for Yakutia, the greatest skyscrapers of Russia, and much more. Architectural studios for children will be operating, where workshops and classes will be held. Sessions are planned where young guests can create their own architectural compositions.

The exposition "The Birth of Scale" will become an event revealing the rich architectural legacy of Russia.
