At the time when architecture and society urgently need to reconsider more broadly their relationship with the natural world and move towards a more sustainable future, the project of the new «Khodynskoye pole» park offers a unique opportunity to redefine the meaning of an integrated park in a contemporary, sustainable society.
ll the Design is inspired by nature and land art, and the general approach is exploring mankind’s desire to reconnect to the earth, through the built environment. All pavilions are designed to be discovered by visitors. The design overlaps each functional aspect with the plot and the mistery of the park.
MCA has been involved in the design of particular elements of the park such as the metro entrance, the park and boulevard pavilions and the sports center.
