Designers' show house Russian style
Kips Bay? Of course. Southampton? Sure. There's even a designer show house in York, Maine.
But Moscow? Now that's one I'd like to see.
If you're headed to Russia this month, you might want to put it on your agenda.
The Russian Design Show at EcoEstate Pavlovskaya Sloboda, conceptualized by Janna Bullock, CEO and founder of RIGroup, an international real estate development firm, features six houses and the work of 24 designers, including Tom Dixon, Alain Moatti, the Campana Brothers, George Nakashima, Ron Arad, Gio Ponti, and Shiro Kuramata.
The homes, which include the Eco House, the Russian House, the Design House, the Nina Campbell House, the Phillips de Pury House, have all been constructed using environmentally friendly materials.
The show runs through July 1, from 12-8 p.m. daily except Monday. Two of the houses, the Nina Campbell House and the Russian Dacha, will be open through Sept.15. Admission is free.
The EcoEstate Pavlovskaya Sloboda is located at 26th km of Novorizhskoe Shosse.
