The authors of the project of the restaurant OZON, which is located in one of the villages on Novorizhskoye Highway, call their object the manifesto of organic structuralism ...
"The cool bliss of summer and the cozy warmth of crackling firewood in the fireplace in winter, when there are snow covered with pine trees behind a transparent glass wall, and you still wait like a small, fairytale new year ... This is the mood that we tried to express in our work on the OZON project Says Alexander Zusik. - A piece of natural landscape is limited only by a glass wall, a simple geometric grid of wooden pylons supports the roof and does not rigidly fix the contour of space, but only gives it structural integrity. As for color, the supporting structures are black, enclosing - white. Bearing pylons, beams and rafters are also black, and the planes of the ceiling and walls are lined with bleached pine. The main elements of the drama image of the interior - bearing pylons. Powerful black glued beams from Angarsk pine lean on pylons. The whitened planes of the ceiling and walls are indifferent to the interior items, which are solved in a warm, beige-brown gamut. "
