Park of Arts Museon - open-air museum in downtown Moscow near Moscow river. The Park located one hundred sculptures, including works by famous artists XX century - Vera Mukhina, Ivan Schadr, Evgene Vuchetich, as well as by contemporary art. For many years The Park has been a cemetery of Soviet sculptures and did not meet the demands of the citizens. The main objective was to recreate areas without touching the existing grid of paths and tracks; furthermore to add features, which would attract young citizens and visitors of the city.



The program: Increased diversity of environment; Creation of new public spaces; A new seal and a variety of road network; Increased diversity of green spaces and forms of gardening.




By adding biological forms to the existing net of roads, we wanted to give humanity sence to the park. Walking along the wooden pathways, which run through the entire park, pedestrians get involved into experience of quiet forest and open urban scenes.
Today almost the entire park has been renovated and considered as one of the most attractive among thousands of visitors.
