Aleksandr Popov


Founder & Chief Architect | Co-Owner
Super Space Studio | Archimatika

Practicing architect since 1999. At the core of his vision for design is inspiring, relevant and contextually balanced architecture. Harmony is impossible without finding a balance - between interior and exterior, people and walls, fashion and timeless aesthetics. “It would seem that if the chosen techniques are appropriate and correspond to the given logic, then it’s okay that they are “unfashionable”. However, for an architect, this can be a stopping point, observant to search for more relevant solutions, perhaps even going beyond a certain fashionable standard, but at the same time more qualitatively convenient requests for places and tasks,” he says.
