Silver Pine

Silver Pine is a modern residence in the Russian capital of Moscow, nestled among Pine forests on an island in the Moskva River, introducing a revolutionary extroverted approach to the city's architectural tradition. Designed by South African architecture studio SAOTA, known for advancing the possibilities of 20th century modernism, the house represents the tradition of terraces, with an emphasis on outdoor orientations, but its environmental and climatic conditions are very different from the origins of the type.

The real challenge for the SAOTA architecture studio was to solve the problem between the two traditions of climate and landscape. The glass system has been developed to the extent that it can effectively provide insulation during Russia's extreme winters, which solves the climate challenge. While the design of the house satisfies the urban architectural character of the capital city and the island's natural pine forest, which is very rare in the vicinity of the historic city center.

Inside, natural materials predominate, from exotic marbles, some backlit, to metal and timber surfaces that bring softness and warmth. ARRCC maintains a dialogue with the architecture in their interior design details. The television's metallic frame resonates with the ledge's faceted jewel-like form below it and the external brass buckle at the building entrance. Softer, warmer materials predominate upstairs, where the more open, flowing, and interconnected spatial approach gives way to private spaces with a more relaxed, casual atmosphere.

The public character of Silver Pine House provides a contemporary interpretation of the architectural character of the city. The overall practice of the project demonstrates that SAOTA mediates a new relationship between Russian residential architecture and its landscape and climate. The contemporary villa elevates the potential of living, realized in a milder climate, in this more extreme setting.
