“Algorithm” is a renovation project of a historic school in central Moscow. The five-story building, a heritage site, once housed a Catholic girls’ school and later became a state school, now transformed into an international school.
The project balances preservation and innovation. For example, a school café features retro checkered tile. New educational furniture is mixed with antique pieces like shelves and chairs.
Corridor walls reflect the building’s story, with color-coded lower wall finishes to aid floor navigation.
The psychological well-being of teachers can be supported through architecture. A good interior should feel safe and caring.
Alexey Misyutin, Principal of Algorithm School
