St. Petersburg architect Igor Sushkov in every project seeks to realize his main creative principle: "Architecture is the art of compromise." The Clinic 32 was no exception (aesthetic medicine clinic at Komendantsky prospect, d. 25). Without resorting to complex decisions, it was possible to achieve the most expressive composition in its interior. It was especially important to create an atmosphere of pleasant anticipation, rest and relaxation, taking into account the specifics of the place. The main tool was chosen soft eclecticism, which combined in one space rectilinear brutal forms and elements of the classics. The same technique can be traced in the choice of colors, in which the scarlet color contrasts with a smoky gray, and cold tones are side by side with warm ones.
