The modern housing complex of Tricolor sits in one of Moscow’s greenest districts, just outside the urban forests of Losiny Island and Sokolniki, the park belt of the VVTs (All-Russian Exhibition Center) and the Main Botanical Garden. Thanks to the visionary architecture of Vladimir Plotkin—Russia’s “Architect of the Year 2010”—and a symbolic color scheme of the façades, it has become a new landmark for the Prospekt Mira neighborhood and all of northeastern Moscow.
