Skoltech is a Russian government initiative for a new urban community in Moscow’s 4th ring, 20 km southwest of the Kremlin. The project aimed to create a new typology for Russian urban spaces by integrating landscape eclecticism and abandoned Soviet-era sites with new mixed-use programs that encourage research, production, and the application of innovative technology.
The Skoltech complex and the surrounding third Skolkovo district were designed by the renowned Swiss architectural firm Herzog & de Meuron, a Pritzker Prize laureate. The construction of the complex, as well as the development of project documentation, was entrusted to Putevi AD Užice.
The university, with an area of over 136,000 m², is envisioned as the start of a new district infused with civic life and an active program that encourages work, shopping, walking, and similar activities. It is distinguished by integration and inclusion.
A prominent educational and research center for Russia and the entire world. Winner of the Prix Versailles 2019, UNESCO HQ, Paris. Completed in 2018.

The first project of the architectural firm Herzog & de Meuron in Russia, Pritzker Prize winner (the “Oscar” of architecture) and author of dozens of the world’s most iconic buildings (Allianz Arena in Munich, Bird’s Nest Stadium in Beijing, Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg, Tate Modern Gallery in London, etc.).
“This is really amazing,” said Russian Prime Minister D. A. Medvedev when opening the building in autumn 2018. It is the first LEED GOLD certified building in Russia. The circular building has a diameter of 280 meters, roughly the size of two stadiums.
The university consists of 12 rectangular blocks connected by a system of internal and external rings. The blocks house laboratories, while public, administrative, and educational spaces are primarily located within multifunctional inner rings. The complex forms a chain of courtyard spaces of varying configurations. All technical and additional educational facilities are located in the basement.
