designed by zaha hadid architects, the ‘dominion office building’ is among the first realized structures to be built for moscow’s emerging yuzhnoportovy district. internally, the scheme is conceived as a series of vertically stacked floorplates arranged around an atrium, which rises through the building. balconies at each level correspond to the displacement of the outer envelope, while a series of staircases interconnect through this central void.

owing to the building’s programmatic layout — with a ground floor restaurant adjoining the outdoor terrace — the atrium becomes a shared space that encourages interaction between the employees of the building’s various companies. as many IT and creative industry start-ups regard this research culture as important for progress and development, this integration also serves to encourage collaboration between companies of different services and disciplines. offices are arranged within a system of standard rectilinear bays that provide space for small, expanding or large companies.
