Gruzchikov house, Postconstructivist brick building in Voroshilovskiy District, Russia.
The Gruzchikov House is a residential brick building from the late 1930s with geometric forms and functional design. It features symmetrically arranged windows and a clear structural composition typical of Soviet architecture of that era.
The building was designed in 1937 by architect Aleksandr Kurowski during a shift in Soviet architecture away from Constructivism. This period marked a move toward more orderly and rational design in residential construction.
The house shows how Soviet architects designed residential buildings with clean forms and practical layouts. Its brick walls and balanced window patterns shape the appearance of this neighborhood even now.
The house is located in Volgograd's Voroshilovskiy District and can be easily reached from the main streets of the area. You can view the building from the outside and observe its architectural details from the street.
The building preserves its original brick facade and many original architectural elements from 1937. It is a rare example of how this architectural style continued intact through the decades in Volgograd.
