ARCHITECTURE

DIAMOND TOWER

DIAMOND TOWER

The basic shape of the skyscraper is derived from the Egyptian obelisk. The building is divided into a podium, which contains the commercial spaces and the tower with offices. On the facade, a metal structure supports the windows. This form was inspired by an Italian building, the "Diamond Palace," located in Ferrara, Italy. It is a classic example of how architecture from the past can make a great contribution and be a source of inspiration for the development of new modern conceptual ideas.

HARBIN HOTEL PALACE

HARBIN HOTEL PALACE

It is the largest spa hotel in Harbin. As the building is close to Russia, the predominant style used is classical. Respecting the original structure of the building, an attempt was made to break the monotony of a large perspective facade by creating individual areas, each with a distinct decoration. The main sources of inspiration are the ancient Italian palaces, where arches and columns represent the beauty of an architecture made of proportions and symmetry. The study of interiors follows the same principle; you have luxurious rooms in the classical style.
