The peculiar, and so strikingly different from the other buildings, has a view of the mansion, which formerly belonged to a railway engineer who built the Trans-Siberian railway, SN Tipping. The building was designed by a military engineer and architect, critic and theoretician Vladimir Apyshkovym. It was his first serious work. Great influence on the work of the project had AI von Gauguin, it can also be seen in a dynamic layout inside the building and in the definition of external geometry volumes. Adds similarities presence of a winter garden with a glass roof. VP Apyshkov used for decoration materials such as the background Gauguin: brick bright color blocks of granite tiles for the frieze in bluish tones.
But while VP Apyshkov and followed the principles that Gauguin used a background, but at the same time he developed a completely different, own, space-planning structure. Distinctive features of this structure are: the rational organization of the inner space; bold articulation of volumes; compositional movements tend to the central part of the building; Objects communicate diagonal axis; axis represents the resultant of them.
According to the basic concepts of the structure Apyshkova, hall with high ceilings and a vertical rod on which are strung layout of all floors of the building. It is a kind of spatial core, because this creates the illusion of three-dimensional forms monolithic building. One form continues to another. Created Apyshkovym architectural work has been attributed to the heights of Russian Art Nouveau. They had anticipated many of the techniques and principles, which are inherent in the twenties of the twentieth century avant-garde architecture.
One of the new architectural solutions found Apyshkovom, was the use of dynamic diagonal axis, through which he joined several increasing volumes of cylindrical shape . Increasing these cylinders occurs sequentially . The narrow spiral staircase and vestibule were placed as an architect in the outer cylinder of the first bank . The inner cylinder is the space, consisting of three tiers, whose main function is to provide communication between the rooms belonging to different zones and groups at home . On the use of a central round hall Apyshkova pushed the desire of the future owner of the house to avoid dark corridors . The first floor of the hall was reserved for the reception, a ring-shaped balcony was designed by art gallery . The third floor housed a dining room for staff . Natural lighting was carried out through a skylight, located in the center . The lower rooms got light through the glass floor .
Forms the rear facade of the house have a clear track. When viewed from the street to the winter garden, you can see a clear cylindrical shape, which occupies a semicircular corner volume and relate harmoniously with the straight lines of the building.
The interior of the rooms combines the features of two directions: classical and modernist. Venice Secession (stucco on the plant theme, wreaths with female masks) can be seen in the decoration. Rizalit first main facade was decorated female figure, then it was dismantled.
New style of the proposed Apyshkovym, allowed mixing of motives inherent in different styles. The impact on the choice of style has furniture available to the owner of the house.
At various times of the building it has been subjected to changes being made at the request of changing owners. Sometimes these changes are made disharmony in the overall appearance of the building. For example, in 1914 he was made an extension to the rear facade, the initial composition was broken. In our time, some windows bricked up.
At the moment, the building is a dental clinic.
