Appreciation towards VOX Architects for providing the following description:

加加林机场以尤里·加加林的名字命名，它是人类历史上第一个进入太空的人。这座机场是萨拉托夫市新的国际机场，面积超过23000平方米。

Gagarin Airport named after Yuri Gagarin, the first man in human history who flew into space, is the new Saratov international airport with a total area over 23 000 m².

VOX建筑事务所的主要任务是在机场中设计一个1044平方米的当代、舒适的VIP休息室，其中所有设施都要达到国际高标准。

VOX Architects chief goal was to design in the airport a contemporary and comfortable VIP-lounge with an area of 1 044 m² and all its functional spaces in compliance with high international standards.

VIP休息室的设计参考了宇宙。这个概念直接体现在了加加林的画像以及太空舱上，后者是一个球形载人车辆的模型，作为游乐室供年轻乘客使用。除此之外，设计还用隐喻的形式传达了宇宙的信息，朴素纯粹的空间向人们昭示着忍耐、突破、奇妙、优越等品质。

Cosmos became a reference to design the VIP-lounge architectural image. The cosmic theme is present both directly – as relief portrait of Gagarin or a capsule, a model of a spherical Earth crew capture vehicle, used as a playroom for younger passengers, and metaphorically –  as stark emotional architectural images and motives of endurance, breakthrough, miracle, superiority.

中庭由玻璃立面和垂直的光柱组成，使VIP休息室的上下两层相互连通，其中融合了楼梯间、电梯，并且在中部设有一个一体式的吧台。一层空间中设置接待柜台和一个登机门，以及公共空间、餐厅、酒吧、独立的公共休息区、游乐室等功能区域。

The two levels of the VIP-lounge are interconnected by an atrium with facade glazing and a vertical light column — complex architectural structure of a circular floating staircase, a lift in its center and an adjoining bar. On the ground floor there are a reception desk and a boarding gate, open public spaces, a restaurant, a bar, separate public lounges, a playroom.

二层空间更为私密，包括半开放的单人工作胶囊、带有小厨房的会议室、办公休息区以及私人休息室等。在两层空间的组织下，乘客可以根据自己的需求使用休息室的不同区域，避免了客流密集。

On the second floor the spaces are more secluded, like individual semi-open working capsules, a conference room with a kitchenette, an office lounge, and private lounges. Thanks to the two-level lounge organization it became possible to disperse the passenger traffic flow according to their needs, and to use the utmost potential of the space for different purposes.

项目的颜色方案以天蓝色和白色为基础，配以不同色调的蓝色。白色和蓝色的物体可以让人们联想到云朵，仿佛坐着火箭冲入了大气层。仿佛没有尽头的奇幻空间中充满神秘的标志，被明亮的射线穿透，象征了科学科技的成果与人类勇气的结合。

The coloristic solution is based on a sky-blue combination of white with various shades of blue. White-blue objects remind of clouds, ploughed by a rocket shooting into mesosphere. The miraculous infinite space is filled with enigmatic signs and permeated with bright rays of light, symbolizing a mix of sci-tech achievements and human courage.
