Youth hostel – hostel of the future!

All students living in dormitories of Soviet development, have a lot of inconvenience. In the currently existing places of temporary residence does not include advanced communication capabilities, Internet, etc.

In addition, a particularly acute problem of toilets and the kitchen is always an edge. Solve all the problems studobschezhitiya help new projects in which students’ dormitory, built in the Soviet project will replace the campus.

The Union of Architects of Russia believe that it is a modern campus able to solve the problem of inconsistency of the old dorm today’s needs. About that, what amenities you can expect the students and why they will not be ashamed of their temporary housing, said Alexei Ginzburg, winner of the competition to design a student dormitory, held by the Fund for Housing Development in cooperation with the Union of Architects of Russia.

Computers, cell phones, internet – all this must be a student today, but not provided for by existing residences. As a result, all of these communications take an already cramped space of students’ rooms. Therefore, the architects led by Alexei Ginsburg decided not to simply extend the living space, but also get rid of the established scheme of Soviet communal student accommodation: a room-kitchen-kurilka-lift.

Besides more square meters in rooms architects decided to turn the kitchen into the living room (as is common on campus). First, the kitchen was separated from the residential units, thus creating a separate floors in the spacious halls, where you can meet not only for eating, but just for leisure. For example, to arrange the festivities there, or invite guests. Second, the kitchen in a few new projects extended – it has a bay window that creates it as it is another isolated area. Therefore, disputes about what to do now in the kitchen, cooking dinner or a fun, must become less.

The project solves another more pressing problem – toilets. They are, however, decided to leave in blocks, designed for 2-3 rooms. But it has to compensate for another innovation – the toilet and bathroom in the dorm will be located separately.

Do not spared the fashion campus projects on the environment. For example, the lighting in hallways and rooms will come not only from the power supply, but also on light boxes, reported in the roof. Approximately one and a half times increase and window openings in the rooms. A shelter will be ventilated facades.

The architects believe that their projects may be in demand in Greater Moscow. Mainly because there are planned low-rise buildings, and height-designed campus does not exceed 5-6 floors.

Themselves the same campus, there are two options. The first of these is designed for 1200-1500 people. The project is another campus can be adjusted depending on the needs of the university: 400, 600, 800, 1,000 and 1,500 seats. In addition, the architects have come delicately and color scheme of facades – their colors can be adjusted depending on the surrounding buildings and “inscribed” in the historic city center.

However, as soon as may be built the first such campus in the Union of Architects of Russia is not solved to predict. But the project can now take advantage of higher education that students will want to make life more comfortable.
