Super high-rise residential hub
Concept project

Where Russia, Moscow
Team Misha Miterev
Year 2025
The project is conceived as a multi-functional super high-rise residential hub composed of three residential towers (B – 41 floors, C – 56 floors, D – 75 floors) anchored by a horizontally articulated office center (A).
Urban concept and site structure.

The complex occupies a linear urban plot, framing the main avenue with an active mixed-use edge while opening a generous internal courtyard system toward the greener, quieter side of the site. The towers are positioned in a staggered sequence (B–C–D) to optimize daylight, reduce mutual shading, and secure panoramic views over the surrounding city and landscape.
A ring of mid-rise residential buildings (10–12 floors) as a transitional layer around towers B, C, and D, strengthening both the urban edge and the internal courtyard structure.


Program and functional zoning.

Towers B, C, and D accommodate high-density residential units, with vertical gradation of typologies: compact apartments in the mid-levels and premium units and penthouses on the uppermost floors with expansive views. The office center A forms a multi-level podium along the street, combining office space with retail and lobby functions, thereby creating an animated frontage and a clear public address for the entire development.
Architectural form.

The towers are designed as slender prism-like volumes with subtly rounded corners, enhancing wind performance and giving the skyline a refined, sculptural silhouette. A pixelated curtain-wall façade alternates clear glazing with warm metallic panels and vertical ribbons, creating depth, dynamic light effects, and a readable scale despite the extreme height of the buildings.

Public realm and connectivity.

An elevated promenade weaves between podium volumes and tower bases, forming shaded, weather-protected pedestrian routes and terraces that unify the ensemble at the +1/+2 levels.
Generous ground-level plazas, landscaping, and recessed drop-off zones separate pedestrian flows from vehicular traffic, fostering a safe, comfortable microclimate and encouraging social interaction within the hub.
