There is the established practice for significant investors and developers to attract foreign architectural firms to develop unique and iconic objects in Russia. Famous architects from all over the world develop projects with complex architectural solutions for Russia: public and residential buildings, urban infrastructure, as well as private residences.

WHY DO YOU NEED AN ADAPTATION OF FOREIGN PROJECTS?

What is the peculiarity of working with foreign projects? There are design standards, current legislation, as well as features related to the local mentality, geography, and climate in any country. Russia is a big country. We have a variety of climatic zones, natural landscape, traditions, nationalities, and in addition also have our own norms, standards, GOSTs and laws. If Russian construction companies and architectural bureaus have difficulties in meeting the requirements of building codes and regulations, it is even more difficult for foreign companies to understand the laws of a foreign country. Therefore, there is the necessity to adapt international projects to Russian standards appears.

ADAPTATION OF INTERNATIONAL LIGHTING DESIGN PROJECTS

The adaptation of outdoor lighting projects is also a hot topic for architecture and construction because lighting is an integral part of them. It is necessary to coordinate and execute project documentation in state institutions priory to the start of construction. It is necessary to draw up documentation according to the established model for the project to be put into operation. The standards govern every section of the project documentation, including lighting.

Our company introduces foreign architects to objects in their environment. Knowing the design features, the nuances of the location of the object, the socio-economic parameters of the city or area where it is being implemented, and the cultural and historical environment, we give architects a versatile vision of the project and help to successfully implement it.

With the experience of participating in international projects, we can say that the most successful are those projects where local lighting design specialists were involved at the earliest design stages.
