Childhood’s favorite toy in the space of the city: an architectural master class will be held at the National Centre RUSSIA
A "Toy for the City" master class for children and
their parents will be held on July 4, at 14:00 at the National Centre RUSSIA.
This master class is a part of the educational program of "The Birth of
Scale" exposition.
There, the attendees together with the teachers of the
"ArchiLAB" student center will think of how one of the childhood
toys, a rocking horse, might look like in an urban space. At the master class,
children and adults will try to imagine how one could deal with such an object:
to go down a slide, to play on a swing set, to buy ice cream, and more.
The master class will be led by Elena Ganushkina, an
architect, a member of the Union of Moscow Architects, Associate Professor of
the Department of Urban Planning at Moscow State University of Geodesy and
Cartography, Associate Professor of Residential Buildings at Moscow
Architectural Institure, as well as Alexandra Pudokhina, Yulia Kholova and
Ekaterina Egunova, third-year students of the Department of Architecture at
Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography.
The participants of the practical lesson will learn to work
with color, understand the concept of contrast of color and shapes, and
consider how to integrate a small architectural form into the landscape of a
city.
