CONCEPT
Intimate female space as an environment for psychological comfort and restoration. Spatial Logic Transitioning from public areas to private spaces through the reduction of visual and acoustic stimuli. Form Soft, curved lines, pliable partitions, and the absence of hard angles. Color Muted, natural tones—warm neutrals and soft greens. Materials Natural and tactile: wood, textiles, matte surfaces. Light Multi-layered, diffused, and adaptable to various scenarios. Outcome An interior design that serves as a tranquil backdrop for psychological practices and the formation of a female community.
SITUATIONAL PLAN

Basmanny District is one of Moscow’s oldest neighborhoods, historically connected to craft, education, and science. Since the 18th century, the area has been developed with public and educational buildings. In the 20th century, it housed scientific institutes that shaped the district’s intellectual character. Today, Basmanny is undergoing active transformation: HSE Art and Design School campuses, creative spaces, and cultural venues are forming a vibrant youth environment while preserving the area’s historical identity.
