Luxury Village

Luxury Village is an exclusive shopping street situated in a new urban development in the forests just outside of Moscow. In addition to 60 high end shops, such as Prada, Gucci, Rolls Royce and Yves Saint Lauren, the street acts as a 'spill out' for a luxury hotel and casino which will be completed in 2006.

The paving is perforated in parts by green pockets.

The brick paving is perforated in several places with round green 'pockets', planted with pine trees (Pinus sylvestris) and seasonal flowers. The trees, which can stand the extreme temperatures of Moscow, are reminiscent of its surrounding birch-pine forest.
