Landscape design of Mira Avenue in Kaliningrad
Our workshop "DOMUM" together with the team of TO "UTRO" had the honor to develop an architectural and urban planning concept for the improvement of Prospekt Mira / Khuffen Alley in Kaliningrad! The project, 3 km long, includes: the development of building facades, the improvement of the pedestrian part of the street and public spaces overlooking it, the development of a proposal for public and cycling transport!
For two months of fruitful work, we explored the street and all the neighborhoods adjacent to it with a rich history from the era of Keninsberg to the present day. We met and involved in the project caring and very active residents of Kaliningrad. For joint work, we conducted various studies, on the basis of which we will develop a concept of improvement.
