Stakanizm architecture of Leningrad
Stakanizm. New progressive architectural style
St. Petersburg is famous for its architectural tradition. Since the founding of our city by the best architects of his time, producing masterpieces, reaching perfection in their craft. Exceptions were only the last few decades of Soviet rule but "dashing nineties", when the city built a model of the building on the outskirts, totally different fantasy. St. Petersburg was given the status of a boring "city-museum", and all the authorities' efforts were aimed only at protecting decaying historical buildings. However, the time showed that it is impossible to live in a museum!
And with the arrival of Valentina Matvienko in sullen and gloomy Petersburg came true bright life!
During the reign Valentina in our city not only truly earned fresh architectural idea, but formed a new, truly revolutionary style - STAKANIZM!
To begin with let us recall history. In Russia, thick glasses started to do in the era of Peter the Great. Even in those days it was known that a cup easier to hold in your hand while pitching the ship. Design glass tumbler Soviet model belongs to Vera Mukhina, the author of the monumental composition "Worker and Collective Farm." It is proved that it not only looks elegant, but also much stronger than usual, and thus gained to its huge popularity in the Soviet Union. In the popular mind faceted glass associated with holiday good cheer, companionship. Unfortunately, in our time the subject of dishes almost went out of circulation, giving way to more fashionable designs. The more interesting the fact that masterpiece Fly suddenly regained popularity, manifesting itself at a new stage of its dialectical development is not a vessel for drinking, as well as an architectural form, the fruit of a brilliant progressive urban planning ideas!
Now it is difficult to determine which one of the architects turned pioneer a new style, a house can be called the first building made by all the canons stakanizma. Like many great discoveries, ideas stakanizma immediately took over the minds of many creators. One of the first buildings - heralds a new era can be considered as the house at the corner of Nevsky and Suvorov avenues:
In people, the house affectionately called "Dunno hat", ignoring the main thing - the idea of faceted glass, emphatically and clearly embodied in this breakthrough project!
Progressive concept inspired the architects of the city. Driven by a creative impulse of immense power, rebounding from this simple but brilliant idea, modern architects began to create masterpiece after masterpiece, transforming the environment fading historic center.
Here and there began to appear the elegant side cut-glass cups,
roof buildings decorated with charming piles.
Fantasy architects knows no boundaries, and ideas stakanizma find ever new expressions. Some people prefer a modest, small "stakashki" unexpected development animating the central areas ...
... And someone like the mighty "glass", proudly and boldly rising above the old ruin!
Stretched up thick glasses have become a real symbol of trying to rise from his knees powers!
Glasses can be transparent and be the core idea of building ...
... And may be slightly "muddy" and seen only a few expressive detail:
We see a lot of unexpected decisions, creative discoveries.
Here, for example, is implemented outside the complex topic polstakana:
Here attentive citizen sees three cups, nested!
At the same time, looking at the building, you can remember about folding plastic cups, which are often rescued the Soviet people in the campaigns, on a picnic or in the course of a friendly conversation away from home.
See how exquisitely realized fashionable idea of building "State Councillor»:
Admiring glances citizen opened several glasses of different sizes and proportions!
Brighten disclosed the possibility of a new style in a complex near the metro station "Chkalov»:
Here we have not one or two glasses, and a service!
This building, without a doubt, an unusually decorated Petrograd side!
Now let's look closely at another masterpiece of architecture - one of the most loved Petersburgers buildings in the historic center.
This is the famous "Regent Hall."
Due to the concave glass wall and pile on top of the building creates an unusual optical effect. A man looking at the building feels like inside and outside the glass at the same time!
Other expressive form of expression of ideas stakanizma author found the following creations:
Here we observe the dynamics of the glass, sliding over the surface of the table!
A landmark development has been the construction in our city next building.
Obviously, long-distance romance of rail travel has inspired the creation of the author of this architectural masterpiece. Looking at the delicate cup holder can not help remembering the hot tea in the car, traveling about the vast expanses of our Motherland! The solution was so successful that even the bell tower of the Peter and Paul Cathedral, is in the frame, it does not spoil the view of the majestic building!
Otherwise, revealed the same subject created by the hotel "Novotel»:
Here, the idea of ancient motifs woven coasters.
Glasses decorated with almost all major highways in the city center.
Here's a monumental glass appeared on the Bolshoy Prospekt:
It's amazing how the architect was able to design a glass with so many faces!
This glass on the Small Avenue Vasilevsky Island:
Notice how the responsible architect came to the issue of preservation of cultural heritage! In order for the new building with the surrounding buildings, the author went on a retreat from the canons stakanizma, replacing the cylindrical turret on the tapered. With this glass excellent harmony with the adjacent chapel.
Symbols of a new era, of course, had to decorate and the main road of the city - Nevsky Prospect.
Here the author creatively approached the topic of glass, finding an unexpected solution. Stretching the vessel along one of the axes, the architect brought his form to the shape of the jar ...! Truly, there is no limit imagination fly architects stakanistov!
Spirit stakanizma permeated virtually all of the most significant construction projects of our time. For example, some cute glasses, we unexpectedly find in the famous "silver mirror»:
And here - a fragment of the complex "Aurora". And here was not without familiar faces glass.
We conclude our brief review of the masterpiece creations stakanistov Street. Moiseenko:
Please note that the faceted glass in the upper part of the building as though filled with crystal-clear liquid. This is a vivid image of the elixir of inspiration that helps architects, stakanistam create their best creations.
But back to the complex "Aurora". Look closely at the cupola crowning the building. Easily we find in it the familiar subject - medical syringe!
Yes, no matter how nice glass hearts St. Petersburg, requires a new generation of new ideas. Young innovators narrow verge of the glass beaker, they are looking for and find relevant architectural forms - a syringe! We can say that the main competitor stakanizma a different style, albeit related - shpritsizm.
See what glorious syringes already decorated Petersburg:
Obviously, a great complement to a glass syringe, and experts predict shpritsizmu widespread and high popularity in the built environment.
Only a few years have passed since the appearance in the city center the first cup, but has already managed to catch the fancy of stakanizm residents. The reason for its popularity is simple - this style is very organic in the environment of Petersburg, its roots in the culture of Leningrad rumochnaia, eateries and pyshechnyh. And the invaluable contribution of the governor Valentina Matvienko is precisely that it is time to feel what awaits stakanizm bright prospects in our city, and gave this direction to develop creative thinking.
Why stakanizm so popular in the built environment? We think that the answer to this question is very simple. The fact that no other style makes it so vividly manifest diversity of talent of the architect!
Time will tell what kind of future awaits stakanizm and shpritsizm on the banks of the Neva.
The city should develop, and its development is already in progress by leaps and bounds. In place of Montferrand and detomonam have new talented architects. In place of the old klopovnik grow more and more sparkling clean glasses!
And in the minds of enlightened ideas stakanizma our architects born fresh ambitious plans! How many brilliant projects will soon see the grateful citizens? .. Maybe all we still live in the era of stakanizma may eventually find in the urban architecture, the expression of new modern directions ...
The crown stakanizma should be building "Ohta-Center"! This masterpiece of contemporary architecture wonderfully combines the idea of cut glass with the image of a corkscrew. The construction of "Ohta-Center" will mark the final victory stakanizma in our city.
