The installation of the architectural exposition "The Birth of Scale" continues at the National Centre
"The Birth of Scale" exposition will open at the National Centre RUSSIA on March 1. The installation process is ongoing, and multimedia screens are now being set up in the pavilion.
"The Birth of Scale" will be a landmark event showcasing Russia’s architectural legacy. It will introduce visitors to the most striking, ambitious, and unconventional projects, highlighting both past and present concepts. Guests will have the opportunity to learn how architects worked in different historical periods.
The exposition will feature vintage 19th-century drafting tables and models illustrating the design process. Special attention will be given to Russian avant-garde architecture, a movement that has become an integral part of global architectural culture.
A dedicated section will explore the relationship between architecture and art. The exposition will also present projects that have been replicated by leading architects worldwide. Architectural studios will be available for children.
The exposition aims to highlight the scale and grandeur of Russia. Another key goal, as emphasized by its chief curator Andrei Chernikhov, is to demonstrate the brilliance of Russian creativity when it comes to architecture.
Host Alexei Slushchev and philosopher Konstantin Matsan discuss how ideas about human values have developed and whether they can influence our lives today.
In addition to souvenirs, a tea collection and healthy sweets, visitors to the Department Store showed particular interest in books.
