Studies undertaken by IO CARYDI include the public space around Zaryadye Park. In detail, the schematic design is looking on the integration of the lower Red Square plaza to the park, accommodating pedestrian flows, enhancing the landscape ambience around the tourist bus parking developing several studies that facilitate the transition from the existing cobble granite pavers around the Red Square and St Basil’s church to the Zaryadye park parametric rhomboid pattern that is characteristically borderless. Exact outcome includes color variations of granite pavers and a smooth integration of the rectangular geometry of cobbles with the rhomboid pattern of the park pavers.
