Before establishing the garden, we examined the historical context. This location holds over 20 notable facts from the history of the Imperial Naval Guards crew, ranging from royal weddings and coronations to the Decembrist uprising. Bakeries and art workshops were once located here. These businesses continue to exist in their modern format today.
Our courtyard has a unique characteristic: it is surrounded by public buildings, yet remains accessible to all city residents. The concept for the garden emerged from a request — we aimed to reimagine the environment and lifestyle of city people in the historical center, providing the area with a new significance and aesthetic look.
This is a green oasis, both technologically advanced and wild. Neolines as a tribute to the architecture of Zaha Hadid. Concrete and brass as co-founders of the landscape. The fluidity of the hills as an invitation to contemplation. The intertwining of branches and crowns as a reference to the unity of science and art. Signature Scandinavian style matched with eclecticism. Public space as an invitation to a small walk. A greenfield area where you want to peep around the corner to find the next amazing point and piece of landscape.
This park will make anyone an explorer. The landscape will burst with a riot of color during spring and fall. Palmatum maple, Lamarck’s juneberry, pines, hawthorns, and hazels. If you would like to feel the tranquility vibe, you just have to walk a little further and trust the place. You’ll find yourself surrounded by mature trees — as if this garden has been here for years. Their crowns tenderly shelter you and give you some rest minutes away from the urban bustle.
