Science – the light of knowledge
The composition is built around science and innovation, which spread like light. The “rays” of the buildings converge in the compositional centre of the school; the arch of the gallery repeats the outline of the façade.

Three phases
I – the school itself, an educational platform of the digital economy where the region’s leading companies, world-class laboratories and students work on the technologies of a new industrial revolution. II – the campus: a laboratory building and a sports hall along the Kolmovskaya embankment, residential buildings turned towards the Volkhov. III – the park.

The embankment
Zones for leisure and sport, for quiet rest and walking, designed for use all year round: cycle paths, a floating bridge, a funicular, a pier and a boat station. Views of the city’s landmarks are kept open, and nature takes the main place.
