Business center AIR

In the northwest of the capital, just a three-minute walk from the CSKA metro station and a step away from Europe's largest shopping center, Aviapark, the glass towers of AIR, a premium class A+ business center, are rapidly rising into the sky. The Tekta Group project is creating an entire ecosystem on the former Khodynka Field runway for companies that value technology, the prestige of the address, and a healthy working environment.

Three towers of different heights, from 14 to 34 storeys, are connected by a stylobate with a shopping gallery, and a two-level underground parking for 530 spaces is supplemented by fast charging stations for electric vehicles. The total area of the complex exceeds 130,000 m², of which more than 85,000 m² is allocated for flexible office spaces ranging from 55 to 1,550 m².

Thanks to panoramic glazing and ceilings up to 3.86 m, the spaces are filled with natural light, and modern engineering creates comfort 365 days a year. AIR is aimed at companies that want to both profitably buy an office and quickly rent an office in a turnkey format; it is equally attractive to investors considering selling premises and to tenants for whom transparent office rent without hidden costs is critical.

Location and transport accessibility

The AIR business center is located at 4/1 Khodynsky Boulevard. The location combines the center and the periphery: the business quarter is literally surrounded by parks, but at the same time is connected to key highways. The exit to Leningradsky Prospekt and the Third Transport Ring takes a couple of minutes, and the road to the Moscow-City business core or Sheremetyevo Airport (along the M-11 highway) rarely exceeds half an hour on weekdays. In addition to the CSKA metro station, the Dynamo and MCC Zorge stations are located nearby; more than ten ground routes run along the route, including express buses to Belorussky Railway Station. Cyclists can use a network of bike paths and indoor bike parking with showers.

Architecture and design

The AIR concept refers to airy lightness: the facades are finished with energy-efficient glazing with 70% transparency, which shimmers from blue to silver under different lighting conditions. The project architect is ABD architects; the towers form a dynamic composition, while maintaining a human scale due to the “living” ground floors. The author's landscape includes promenades, art installations and drop-off sites, and the central square is decorated with a media screen for broadcasting cultural events. The interiors of public areas are designed in the “soft tech” style: natural stone, warm metal accents and bio-materials coexist with subtle media lighting, emphasizing the idea of air flow.

Planning solutions

The internal column grid of 8 x 8 m and the absence of load-bearing walls inside the floors allow for any formats to be implemented: open space, cabinet structure or mixed scheme. The base floor is divided into four corner blocks, which makes it possible to rent an office from 250 m² or buy an entire floor for a corporate headquarters. The high load-bearing capacity of the floors (up to 600 kg/m²) and the ability to lay wet zones anywhere make the premises suitable even for laboratories or showrooms. The corridor-cabinet layout option is available in shell&core, and Tekta Serviced Offices' own team is ready to perform a "turn-key" fit-out with a guaranteed period of up to 90 days. All work areas are equipped with supply and exhaust ventilation with humidification and a Free Cooling system.

Infrastructure

AIR Business Center is conceived as a “city within a city”. The stylobate will house:

• a 4,000 m² shopping gallery with a supermarket, pharmacy and service facilities;

• a street-food gastronomic cluster and a fine-dining restaurant with a view of Khodynka Park;

• a conference center for 350 people with transformable halls and sound-proof partitions;

• a 10,000 m² contemporary art centre that will host exhibitions and lectures;

• premium-level fitness club with a 25-meter swimming pool and spa area;

• coworking and meeting rooms for residents' guests;

• lounge terrace on the roof of the stylobate with wi-fi and a café-bar;

• two-level parking (530 parking spaces) with electric charging stations, car wash and tire service;

• bicycle storage facilities and showers;

• own Tier III data center for rack rental.

Thus, tenants receive all the necessary service environment “under one roof”, and investors considering selling offices after commissioning can offer future users a full-fledged lifestyle complex.

Safety

Security at AIR is based on the “zero compromise” principle. The multi-stage access control system combines biometric Speed-Gate turnstiles in the lobbies, individual elevator cards, and private elevator halls for large tenants. The perimeter and internal areas are covered by HD video surveillance, the data is stored for 30 days. The buildings are equipped with addressable fire alarms, sprinkler fire extinguishing, and a smoke removal system with excess pressure in the evacuation stairs. The presence of two independent power supply inputs and diesel generators ensures the uninterrupted operation of critical systems even in the event of an emergency. As part of the “healthy office” concept, MERV 14 air filters retain up to 98% of PM 2.5 particles, and ultraviolet air treatment reduces the viral load.

The AIR business center forms a new business core on Khodynka Field, combining prestige, technology and high environmental standards. The ability to rent a flexible office space, rent a ready-made space "turnkey" or purchase an office makes the project a universal tool for companies of different sizes. Modern architecture, developed infrastructure and a strategic location near CSKA make AIR a point of attraction for businesses that want to be at the forefront. By choosing AIR, you invest not just in square meters, but in reputational capital, employee comfort and stability of future income.
