INTERIEURS

Zuev Workers' Club, Moscow, Russia,

Designed by Ilya Golosov between 1927-1929,

The Zuev Workers' Club is one of the most celebrated examples of Constructivist architecture. Created as a cultural and social center for workers, the building is distinguished by its dramatic composition of intersecting geometric forms, most notably the glazed cylindrical staircase that contrasts with the stacked rectangular volumes.

The design emphasizes openness, natural light, and dynamic movement, reflecting Golosov's expressive approach to modern architecture. Today, the building remains an icon of the Soviet avant-garde.
