And it looks more like an alien station than a residential building.
Zaha Hadid was one of the most brilliant and extraordinary architects of the XXI century. She gained fame thanks to a special neo-futuristic style that combined a multifaceted, complex composition with bold design solutions.

Working on a private residence is an exception to Zaha Hadid's track record: throughout her career, she has used her talent for socially significant museums, cultural centers and other public buildings.
According to Doronin, cooperation in the framework of a failed public project in the center of Moscow helped him attract the architect to work on his house.

The peculiarity of the house is in the thin concrete stem, which raises the main building 22 meters above the ground.
To which she replied: "You'll have to be taller than the trees to do that." And then I took a napkin and made some sketches."

On the lower levels there are leisure facilities and guest rooms. The house accommodates a spa complex with a swimming pool, a nightclub and a library.
British architect of Iraqi origin Zaha Hadid died of a heart attack in 2016 in London. She was the first female architect to receive the prestigious Pritzker Prize.
