The complex, majestic layering of epochs, stages of town planning development becomes visible, through the tactful designation of objects and structures that have not reached our time. Minimizing the traces of architectural and town-planning errors of the Soviet period, related to the territory without due respect for its uniqueness. This approach allows you to create an intense, exciting and at the same time cozy place with your own image that corresponds to the spirit of Kursk and is an organic continuation of the traditional urban structure that meets the modern requirements of comfort of the urban environment.

The approach is applicable only to the historical core of Kursk and is impossible in the late modern buildings that do not have the same identity, complexity and multi-layering.
