Completion:

Architecture

"The architects’ fantasy runs away: the console arches are easily supported by big black birds instead of trusses. Small trasses are hidden in the birds’ plumage. The atmosphere of game is emphasized with balls rolling out of the walls, lighting appliances that look like billiard-balls in the pockets. Post-modemistic fantasies have been realized in the centre of Sormovo that has it all: Art Nouveau buildings, wooden pre-revolution houses, «khroushchevki», postwar «classics» and panel multi-storied buildings. The «Imperial» is very much to the point here."
