THE TALES OF<br />

THREE PLACES<br />

Everything you do shows your hand.<br />

Everything is a self-portrait.<br />

Everything is a diary.<br />

— Chuck Palahniuk, "Diary"<br />

This portfolio aims to tell about three different places<br />

with their own unique qualities. Being located far from each<br />

other, they differ in sizes, typologies and functions. Each place:<br />

a city, a park and a countryside (dacha) is important for me and<br />

each contains two projects of mine, which either complement<br />

each other or act in contra.<br />

I tend to believe that every single architectural project, conceptual,<br />

educational or the one under construction, tells a story<br />

about its designer. It is technically his self-portrait, projected<br />

onto the landscape.<br />

These projects of mine are never to be realized, which is<br />

why they are only tales. Tales of how once in my life I saw these<br />

sites in my head. And the portfolio, which collects all these tales<br />

that are parts of myself, is therefore me.<br />
