Quattro Corti Business Center - Exterior/Glass Facade

Built over a surface of 53,819.55 square ft and with a usable space of 252,951.89 square ft, this building was projected as an attempt to revitalize the heart of the city of St. Petersburg. The architects took inspiration from Russia's history of architecture, including nods to Hall of Mirrors in the Great Palace of Peterhof on its facade. The name of the office complex comes from the four courtyards included into the project to provide it with natural light sources; the colors of the four courtyard's glassed facades (green, gold, blue, red) come from the colors found in surrounding historical buildings; the architects played with the reflective surfaces of the facade, angling them to create a kaleidoscopic effect as the sun changes places throughout the day.
