Ginzburg

Architectural object
This architectural object is conceived in the language of Bauhaus and Russian Constructivism and refers to the industrial architectural thinking of the 1920s. The work is dedicated to Moisei Ginzburg, a key figure of Soviet modernist architecture.
The composition is built on the contrast between a strict rectangular handle and a circular body — a fundamental Constructivist principle. The rectangular opening visually cuts into the circle, creating tension between geometric forms and emphasizing structural logic. The object is made of thermally treated Caucasian ash, with the handle in reclaimed barn oak aged over 50 years. A linear inlay on the upper part of the handle completes the composition, reinforcing its architectural clarity.
