DRAFT DESIGN OF COMMUNAL DORMITORY № 17 OF THE FEDERAL STATE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION OF HIGHER EDUCATION "IRNITU"
LOCATION: Irkutsk Region, Irkutsk
AREA: 6231 sq.m.
STATUS: concept
CREATORS COLLECTIVE: chief architect Elena Grigorieva, architects Stanislav Sokolov, Sergey Mullayarov, with the participation of: visualizer Alena Aleshina, architect Natalia Borovikova, graphic designer Ksenia Gulyaeva, engineer Pavel Kovsharov

The shape of the designed building in plan is formed by a combination of several rectangular volumes (two rectangles of the main volume shifted along the longitudinal axis of the building and two rectangles of stair and elevator nodes, accentuating the shift of the main volumes, and creating height accents) and diagonally located volumes of entrance groups and bay windows in the ends of the building, reacting to the pedestrian connections that cross the site on the diagonal.
The building responds to the surrounding existing development. The main objective of the facades is to level out the pressure of the large 16-storey building on the 4−5-storey buildings around it, and to lower it visually.
