Excellence in Design Award, Commercial Bank, Russia
The bank was designed to maximally use the area and the natural landscape of the site. The five-storey building has a shape of a rectangular triangle with a cathetus of 26.4 metres. The three-storey frontage faces Vinogradnaya Street.
There is a parking lot for five cars in front of the building that would leave the existing trees intact. On the right side of the frontage there is a garage approach and a cash messenger box. The driveway overlaps with that of an apartment house that is currently under construction. In addition, the project stipulates the construction of an elevated parking lot for 12 cars above the existing underground passage. Such type of a parking lot will make it easy for pedestrians, cash messenger cars and the cars of the bank staff to access the bank.
