INRTU Designers and Architects' Projects Among the Best at the “Wind Of Dreams” Contest
INRTU graduates and students became leaders and winners of the International Competition of innovative projects in the field of interior design and architecture ‘Wind of Dreams’. The online project is organised by Omsk State Technical University.
Nearly 140 students from 31 universities of the Russian Federation, China, Kazakhstan and South Korea participated in the competition. They sent almost 190 projects of residential and public interiors, architectural objects, shop windows, furniture, exposition spaces, etc.
Eight representatives of the Department of Monumental and Decorative Painting and Design named after V.G. Smagin
were named among the best by the jury.
Galina Ovsyankina, Anna Toropova and Anastasia Pavlyuchenko were awarded first place in the nomination ‘Student Interior’ for creating a mosaic trilogy ‘The Way of Knowledge’. The project, which the students completed as part of the graduation thesis in 2024, decorates the university building ‘K’. Head of the department Dmitry Dorokhin and Associate Professor Grigory Sverdlov supervised the graduates.
The creative project symbolises the beginning, development and formation of personality, as well as the path that each student goes through. Colour combinations play a special role in this work. For example, yellow, orange and red remind of striving for the heights of knowledge and success, and purple, blue and white serve as a reference to the spiritual growth of a person.
The victory in the nomination ‘Furniture and Decor in the Interior’ went to graduate Polina Ilyushenko (mentor - Dmitry Dorokhin). She created a sketch of the project of monumental and decorative composition dedicated to Salvador Dali. According to the designer's idea, the panel should reveal the thorny creative path that the famous artist had taken.
Second place in the same section was awarded to Anna Kishtaeva. She chose the image of Galileo Galilei as the main character of her project.
Darya Basharina took the second place (project of object-spatial environment of INRTU library). Elizaveta Bazheeva (residential building project) was awarded the second degree diploma.
The third degree diploma was awarded to the monumental and decorative composition ‘’Mayakovskiy‘’ by Alena Kitsul.
Third place went to Liu Fanyu from China for design solutions for the interiors of the Bright General Aviation office.
Tatyana Sukhova proposed to modernise spaces in Irkutsk City Polyclinic No. 6.
It should be noted that the INRTU students who took second and third places were supervised by Professor Olga Zheleznyak, Associate Professors Dmitry Dorokhin, Marina Zakharchuk and Svetlana Chekanova.
