Goncharnaya THEKEY

The building was fully restored: the facade was renewed, and original interior elements — balconies, staircases, window openings — were recreated. The interior concept is built on avant-garde colors found in the paintings of Kandinsky and Lissitzky — dusty blue, green, and yellow.

Where abandoned residential units once stood is now a flexible office layout for 350 people. Besides the offices, the space includes a cafe-bar, a kitchen, meeting rooms, comfortable lounge areas, and a reception.
