2019年，Bureau A4团队受莫斯科城市维护部的委托，为重建的巴尔楚格堤岸打造了一处新的观景区域，游客身处观景台便可与位于莫斯科河对岸的标志性建筑——克里姆林宫以及扎里亚季耶公园建立视线上的平行关系，从而多方位地欣赏城市景致。

In 2019, the Moscow City Capital Repair Department decided to create new viewing areas on the reconstructed Balchug embankments so that people can look at the city from a different angle. The department asked general customer to draw a visual parallel with iconic objects that are located on the opposite side of the Moskva River, directly opposite the city balconies, namely the Kremlin and Zaryadye Park.

设计中，团队强调场地与对岸场地的联系。俯视角度中可发现这两处区域存在的共性：克林姆林宫墙与扎里亚季河的桥梁均面朝堤防，从而形成了一个三角关系。这处细节也是推进设计团队确认在水岸及水岸高处建立三处城市观景台的切入点，同时外观上采用不同立面处理方式，保证每一处观景台的独特性。

In the top view we noticed a common feature of these two zones: the Kremlin wall and the Floating Bridge of Zaryadye fit into a triangle. The Kremlin and the bridge with its top face the embankment. This detail was a starting point to make three  balconies of two typologies, that is, water-side and an angle to the river. Another difference between the types of balconies is in the facade patterns. They emphasize the connection with the place opposite which the site is located.

设计团队尝试构建一个简单且边界的形式，一方面遵守了堤坝护栏后退的标准限制，另一方面则尽可能减少了对迷人景色的干扰。

We tried to develop a concise and convenient form. On the one hand, we were limited by standard setbacks from the parapet of the embankment, and on the other hand, we created a simple and clear image that would not interfere with stunning views.

钢结构的观景台，侧面包覆着带有滚花图案的纤维水泥板；无扶手式的连续落地围挡，在不影响物体飞行轨迹的情况下，也为拍摄提供良好条件。固定栅栏的金属材料内，嵌入LED灯带，可为夜晚提供建筑照明。城市观景台不仅为莫斯科市民享受滨水空间提供了新的场所，也迅速跻身为Instagram的热门拍照地点。

The steel structure of the balconies is lined with fiber cement panels with a milled pattern. Continuous floor-to-ceiling glazing with no handrail does not interfere with good shots and emphasizes the flying silhouette of the object. In the metal profile that fixes the fence, there is a hidden LED strip for the functional and architectural lighting in the dark. City balconies have become a new opportunity for Moscow citizens to interact with the river and a popular location for taking photos on Instagram.
