Member of the Chamber of Architects of Germany, Officially registered architect (Mitglied der Architektenkammer Hessen)

 

Ggraduated from Novosibirsk State University of Architecture, Design and Arts with a Master’s degree in Architecture, specializing in Urban Planning and Sustainable Architectural Development. I believe an architect’s work must be responsible to the environment, society, and economy. Throughout my career, I’ve contributed to projects that embody these principles, including:

  • Lakhta Center (Saint Petersburg, Russia): At 462 m tall, this 87-story skyscraper is the tallest building in Europe. It earned Platinum LEED certification and became the only green skyscraper in Europe to meet high energy efficiency and sustainability criteria, scoring 82 out of 100.

  • Abu Dhabi Plaza (Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan): A multifunctional complex with office, residential, hotel, and serviced apartments atop a retail podium. Its tallest tower, at 382 m, is Central Asia’s tallest building.

In 2016, I joined AECOM Russia, working on the Gazprom Center in Minsk and later on Abu Dhabi Plaza, collaborating with an international team. This experience taught me the value of diverse perspectives and created lasting professional relationships.

I also contributed to IKEA extension projects in Moscow and Novosibirsk, adapting international designs for Russia, with a focus on environmental certifications and ergonomic solutions.

In 2023 I moved to Frankfurt, Germany, focusing on the design of large-scale data centers. These projects demand a high level of precision, interdisciplinary coordination, and a strong commitment to energy efficiency and sustainability. Working on such high-tech infrastructure has strengthened my expertise in integrating architecture with advanced engineering systems while maintaining design quality and environmental responsibility.

These experiences reaffirmed my belief in architecture’s transformative power. High-rise and public buildings, as well as data centers, are “cities within cities,” shaping urban life and technological progress. I am passionate about creating buildings that serve people while prioritizing simplicity, sustainability, and innovation - values that drive my work every day.
