The general education gymnasium for 500 students is located within the Podolsk urban district of the Moscow Region, near the village of Borisovka. The building has an L‑shaped configuration and varies in height. The main architectural focal point is the main entrance portal at the centre, distinguished by a vibrant colour panel based on the architect's sketch and applied to metal cassettes. The artistic design reflects the creative side of childhood, fosters an atmosphere of openness and self‑expression, inspires pupils, and creates a positive mood. The colour scheme is reinforced by orange inserts that unify the façades. Additional colour panels are placed at the entrance to the senior school and on the façade adjacent to the sports halls. The primary background material for the façades is concrete panels with a brick‑textured finish, tinted in grey shades. This neutral backdrop contrasts with the saturated colours of the panels and orange elements, emphasising the building's contemporary character.
