The project for the Centre for Supplementary Children's Education is located in the village of Gorelovo, Krasnoselsky District, St. Petersburg. The complex is designed to serve the rapidly developing residential quarter "Toriki" and, thanks to convenient transport accessibility, becomes a focal point for residents of the Kirovsky and Petrodvortsovy Districts, as well as towns of the Leningrad Region, including Gatchina, fulfilling an inter-district social function and establishing a hub for supplementary education. The concept is based on associations with children's toys — the Rubik's Cube, Jenga, and the twisting snake — which are reflected in the volumetric-plastic solution: five functional blocks of varying shapes and colours, connected by glazed walkways, corresponding to the scientific-technical, natural-scientific, creative, sports, and administrative-communication disciplines. Architecture becomes a tool for learning and development. A special role is played by adaptive glazing based on "smart glass," capable of altering its light transmission and colour characteristics.
