His early constructions, such as Gribov House in Moscow, are still very much bound to Russian Neoclassicism, yet since the Revolution of 1917, he increasingly designed Constructivist architecture. One example is his Gostorg Management Building, distinguished by glass facades, the functional division of space and use of state-of-the-art materials. Furthermore in the garden city of Druzhba for instance, Velikovsky intensively engaged with new ideas in town planning. With mostly hitherto unpublished technical plans as well as numerous historical and new colour photographs of his most famous projects, Boris Velikowsky's contribution to Russian avant-garde architecture is appreciated for the first time in book form.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elena Ovsyannikova,Nikolai Vassiliev\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3897904780\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783897904781\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arnoldsche Verlagsanstalt GmbH\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/24\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.20h x 9.60w x 1.00d","brand":"Elena Ovsyannikova","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48448041943295,"sku":"9783897904781","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bca51f94-2854-4465-9869-b3e00a335e06.jpg?v=1777236501","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/boris-velikovsky-1878-1937-elena-ovsyannikova-9783897904781","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
