about the project
Primavera, a residential complex on Al-Farabi Avenue, is a vivid example of how architecture can engage in a visual dialogue with the urban landscape.With this project, we once again set out to reinterpret conventional notions of urban development and to create something unique and memorable—restrained, yet undeniably elegant.The complex consists of four buildings arranged into a harmonious ensemble. Two of them are clad in rich red brick, contrasting with the other two, dressed in light ceramic. This interplay of materials and tones evokes a sense of dynamic interaction between the structures.The contrast in textures and hues lends the complex a distinctive character. The darker, “masculine” buildings seem to frame and emphasize the lighter, more “feminine” ones, generating visual tension and intrigue. This architectural approach not only draws attention but also breaks the monotony of the surrounding cityscape.As the renowned designer Dmitry Barbanel once aptly remarked, “The notion of taste is highly subjective.” Primavera embodies this idea, inviting both residents and passersby to interpret its architectural language in their own way. For some, it may represent a bold challenge to tradition; for others — a playful conversation between form and color.
