The Egg House, Experimental architectural structure in Mashkov Street, Moscow, Russia.
The Egg House is a four-story building with a curved white facade and glass windows forming an oval shape on Mashkov Street. The unusual structure immediately stands out and defines the residential area with its modern, organic aesthetic.
The building was completed in 2002 by architect Sergey Tkachenko and represents an early example of post-Soviet experimental architecture in central Moscow. It marked a new direction in building design that broke free from traditional forms.
The building serves as a venue for rotating art exhibitions and attracts artists from across the city. Visitors can see contemporary installations here that reflect the experimental spirit of the place.
The building is located near Chistye Prudy metro station and is accessible daily. Guided tours can be arranged through local architecture organizations to learn more about the design features.
The interior contains a circular elevator system that moves both vertically and horizontally, adapting to the oval structure. This technical solution is unusual and demonstrates how innovative systems enable functionality in unconventional spaces.
