The spirit of absolute freedom, emancipation will permeate the interior of the restaurant "Two Pins" (Kozhevnicheskaya Street, 15, sports complex "Sport Line"). This is the first joint project of Levon Airapetov and Pavel Romanov, implemented after the creation of the “Architectural workshops of LA and P. R.”. The restaurant's space is cut like winds, energetic verticals and contours. Here, everything is like when playing bowls: first a sharp impulse, then an unpredictable result. The dynamics of the lines fascinates, and it remains only to guess what kind of hidden behind the next gracefully curved wall. Believe me, it is impossible to predict. The planes, intersecting and penetrating into each other, symbolize the game. The whole idea is subject to the same idea. He relaxes visitors, relieves from the burden of convention. Austere color solution, strict contrasts are also a match for the sports orientation of the room in which the restaurant “settled”.
