About

Founded in 2017 by Egor Korolev and Elena Smirnova, SON Architecture is an architecture and urban design practice based in Moscow, Russia. We are using design as a medium to rethink ordinary. The first "clear" impression from the context gives us the base for a new project. We believe that this approach creates Non generic, Non expected, Non common etc. architecture. This is our definition of design.
