AIP members had an opportunity to attend the Ural Fashion events and summarize the results of the contest.
Also on August 23, the AIP team had an opportunity to get acquainted with the architectural masterpiece of Norman Foster's bureau - a unique building of the Russian Copper Company headquarters in Ekaterinburg. Work on the concept began in 2012 and the building was commissioned in 2022. One of the features of the project was the use of architectural white concrete as the basis for the building's load-bearing structures, which allowed the monolithic frame to blend into the interior of the office. Now 450 employees of RMK work in the building.
