Boris Levyant, CEO of ABD architects:

«We won the international contest for the development of this center for TMK. It was important that the design fits into the innovative aesthetic, characteristic of the facilities in «Skolokovo». Despite the apparent simplicity, the building is very complex. It includes high-tech testing equipment for the pipe industry, a corporate university with multi-functional hall, laboratories and offices for the staff of the center. The project has been adopted by the client and "Skolkovo" and is now in the process of implementation».
