The plot on Malaya Pirogovskaya Street, set aside for the construction of a new residential complex, occupies an entire block and has the shape of an almost perfect rectangle in plan. This geometry prompted the architects to solve the general plan: one residential building "ABV Group" placed along the red line of the street, the other, U-shaped, edging the site along the perimeter from three other sides. As for the architectural image, its character was dictated by the industrial architecture so characteristic of the Khamovniki of the 19th century. The main facade of the residential complex will be designed in a modern style, but decorated with reliefs by Andrey Nalich. This seemingly obvious decorative move turns out to be more than appropriate here - it connects the new building with the apartment buildings preserved in the district, makes the façade elaborate, "man-made", giving residents and casual passers-by a convenient landmark and interesting material to look at.

In brick facades with large rectangles of windows, you can indeed see features of nearby industrial buildings of the late 19th century or ordinary buildings of the Stalinist period. The architects deliberately decided to create such a roll call - they tried to fit into the context as organically as possible a complex too large for a narrow street and the buildings existing on it: the main facade is divided into vertical fragments, creating the illusion of a living and integral set of houses and avoiding a monotonous extended front. In addition, the building facing the red line has a reduced number of storeys. However, this decision is also aimed at the "internal" user - the proportions of a relatively small courtyard of the new complex become more comfortable in this case.

Perhaps the main merit - their own and the developer's - the architects consider the developments used in this project, which increase the comfort of housing. This is, first of all, the accessibility of the building for people with limited mobility, which includes not only the disabled, but also, for example, mothers with strollers. In addition, relief signs for the visually impaired have been designed in the public areas of the house and in the surrounding area. Also, on all floors there will be continuous waterproofing, which will make the layouts of the apartments really free, with a minimum of restrictions. The utility boxes are designed so that they can be accessed from common corridors and not from apartments; the same applies to the exploited roof, which is equipped with the upper floors - its service zones exist separately from the terraces belonging to the residents, so that the employees of the service organizations will not invade the private territories of the apartment owners. Undoubtedly, the category of comfort should include a three-level underground parking with the ratio of the number of parking spaces to the number of apartments as one and a half to one. Well, and quite a rare thing - a small storage room is provided for each apartment in the basement of the building.

But the landscape design of the courtyard, which will serve only the residents of the complex, fully uses the traditions of the estate planning. The central theme of the improvement here is the alley, the perspective of which is closed by the fountain, but these are not the only landmarks of this territory. A polygonal composition decorated with mosaics will also appear in the courtyard, which will not only decorate the courtyard, but also complicate its layout, zoning children's and adult corners from each other. The functional purpose of the composition is to "camouflage" the skylight of the pool of the fitness center, which is located in the basement under the yard of the house. Since the fitness center, along with the office space on the ground floor, will “work” for the city, the architects decided to completely visually isolate it, including from the upper floors.

This project attracts attention, first of all, by the exceptional elaboration of all the details. The restrained facade of the house, neatly inscribed in the fabric of the historic street, really fascinates most of all precisely close up: the combination of stone and brick, plastic decorating the interwindow lintels, bas-reliefs and wrought-iron fences of balconies - "ABV Group" is true to itself in the sense of careful approach to even the smallest elements decor.
