Grand Prix of the international landscape design competition

area: 662 m²
program: urban landscape design, floristics

authors of the project: Anton Kochurkin, Nina Gogina, Lidia Bazarova

The main idea of the project is to take an excursion into history and show the beauty of the variegated vegetation of the early pre-Moscow period. The composition of the flower garden appeared as a result of a study of vegetation that arose long before the founding of the Grand Duchy of Moscow. The flower garden is an illustration of what this place might look like at that time. The free arrangement of grasses and flowers, as in fields in wildlife, is opposed to the geometric shape of the base and the stone-monumental design of the entire area.

The recesses that cut through the podium allow the visitor to take a picture surrounded by plants, sit on a bench in the greens. The structure of the flower garden is a platform raised above ground level with built-in shops, in which plants are planted.

The color solution is performed in blue, pink and white tones. In the background, along with cereals, plants with blue inflorescences are planted. This allows optically increasing the length of the flower garden.
