Actor Galaxy Complex Sochi

Stellar Stages, Radiant Spaces: Actor Galaxy Complex in Sochi by Taiyo Europe – Where Architectural Brilliance Takes Center Stage

Location: Sochi, Russia
Fabric Type: ETFE Film
Market Sector: Entertainment / Leisure
Project Size: 17700 sq.ft.
Architect: SPEECH Tchoban & Kuznetsov
Engineer: Maffeis Engineering SpA
Completion Date: October 1, 2014

Nestled against the picturesque backdrop of Sochi, the Actor Galaxy Complex stands as a testament to architectural innovation, with Taiyo Europe at the helm of its design. This luxurious apartment complex is distinguished by a crowning jewel - a 3-layer ETFE cushion roof that redefines the skyline with its expansive dimensions and intricate detailing.
Spanning an impressive area of approximately 80 by 20 meters, the roof is a masterpiece comprising 36 individual cushions, each a canvas of design excellence. What sets this architectural marvel apart is the incorporation of a middle layer, a canvas where innovation meets artistry. Printed with precision, this middle layer transforms the roof into not just a functional element but a dynamic display of form and function.

The use of ETFE cushions is not merely structural; it's a deliberate choice to elevate the living experience within the complex. The translucent beauty of ETFE allows natural light to cascade through, creating an ambiance that seamlessly blends the outdoors with the indoors. Residents are treated to a living environment bathed in the soft glow of natural light, fostering a connection with the surrounding landscape.

The 3-layer ETFE cushion roof is not just a practical shelter; it's a statement of design sophistication. Its visual appeal is not confined to the exterior, as the printed middle layer adds an artistic dimension that captivates the eye and sparks conversations. Each cushion becomes a brushstroke in a larger canvas of architectural brilliance, turning the roof into a work of art that harmonizes with the landscape. As the sun traverses the sky, casting ever-shifting shadows and illuminating the printed patterns, the Actor Galaxy Complex becomes a dynamic play of light and form. It's not just a residential space; it's a living canvas that evolves throughout the day, offering residents a unique and immersive experience in the heart of Sochi.
