How to build lightweight but durable structures: a workshop by architects will be held on March 22 at the National Centre RUSSIA
At the
"Floating Structure" workshop, visitors to the National Centre RUSSIA
will learn how rod structures are created — they are light, airy, yet stable.
Architects Inna and Valery Salikhov will explain how these structures function,
where they are used, and what makes them so strong. The session will take place
as part of "The Birth of Scale" exposition on March 22 at 12:00 and
14:00. Participation is free, but prior registration on the website is
required. The number of spots is limited.
Under the
guidance of instructors, participants will assemble a tall composition
themselves and gain hands-on experience in understanding the principle of a
stiffness diaphragm.
"The
Birth of Scale" exposition at the National Centre RUSSIA showcases
completed architectural projects as well as concepts that remained only as
ideas. These include unique building models, blueprints, and layouts preserved
in museums and private collections. The exposition is open to all visitors free
of charge.
Partners of
"The Birth of Scale" exposition include DOM.RF, the Ministry of
Construction of Russia, Gazprom, the State Research Museum of Architecture
named after A. V. Shchusev, the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art,
the Yakov Chernikhov Architectural Charity Foundation, and the HSE School of
Design.
During the all-Russian survey "What does the Motherland begin with?", people across the country are answering this question in their own way, opening up the innermost corners of their souls.
Souvenir nevalyashkas (traditional Russian roly-poly dolls), are attracting particular attention, with guests choosing them for their harmonious combination of Russian colour and traditional Chinese symbols.
Under the guidance of artisans, each guest made an unusual souvenir that can become either a personal talisman or a gift with a special story.
