zaha hadid designs spaceship house for vladislav doronin
russian billionaire vladislav doronin has commissioned zaha hadid to design a house in moscow, russia for himself and his supermodel girlfriend naomi campbell. the spaceship-like abode is located in barvikha, surrounded by pine and birch trees reaching up to 20 meters high providing a bit of privacy. the overall design of the 2,650 square meter ‘capital hill residence’ features two spatial components. the main program materializes from its hill-side location, housing the more communal living and dining spaces, while an approximately 22-meter high tower structure, reminiscent of a periscope, emerges upwards from the central volume offering dynamic views of the surrounding wooded landscape.

I am so jealous. Well done girl. Can i come to the house warming PLEASE
Hadid\’s architecture screams \”escape\”. This particular design looks as though it should have gun turrets. As Christopher Lasch presaged in The Revolt of the Elites, the super-rich have achieved escape velocity from the gravitational pull of the very society they rule over……
really poor architecture. reminds me of something a first year student would design in attempt to appear more creative than his peers. even the renderings suggest very average spaces for a building that is clearly intended to push the barrier. hooray for computers or zaha would actually have to design something!

She’s such a satanic little gold digger.
Only the rich could have such a freaking awesome structure like this work of art. Personally I would have gone with a more nature look inside so you had both worlds, future outside and a environmental inside with wooden beams incorperated into the structuralaarchitecture of this home……truly an out of this world building I’d love to live in it and be a kid again as if we had crash landed on a planet in a galaxy far far away….lol may the force be with you.
music please….. nobody does it better, baby you’re the best
