Russian Barocco
What’s “Russian Barocco”? Obviously it’s an architectural style and it has been pretty popular among modern Russian riches.
They build real “palaces” made in a 19th century style. Hundreds of them built across the Russian river coasts.
Meet one of them. Called to be the pearl amongst of its kind. It’s even has a Russian orthodox church building embedded into the house, probably with a “court” priest living there.
It’s pretty hard to understand how they stay sane being in the interiors like this, but probably they got used.

First!!
OMG these Russians are so stupid, they brutally murdered their own King, Queen and the royal family and then obsessed with true royal families and grand palaces we have in the west.
Disgusting. MTV-Cribs: the working class’ taste. Average people should feel awe and be impressed - to make the owner of this shit heap look more special. But this only works with similar minded people. The rest of the world is just laughing. Hard.
According to the text it’s build as a hommage to the monarchy and for representational purposes. So it is not really a home. But it is still tasteless and lacks style and class. Shamefull.
Looks like a lot of money was invested to build this.
Jews!!! What is with you people and your lust for money …..
Looks like a poorly designed funeral home, Elvis woulda loved this place.
needs more cowbell
Yes it does,and also a giant Eddie statue by the cannon!
Up the Irons!
It’s WOW… I couldn’t live in a house like that.
The owner didn’t know how to waste his money. So he built this shit..
That gives me a headache
joe u such a fuckin pendejo, dont u realize this style has been in WHITE russian culture for hundreds of years whilst african-americans wearing jewlery(imitating white ITALIANs) has only been around less than 100!
no u didnt cuz ur a fuckin pendejo
Reminds me niggers with gold chains and teeth.
my worst nightmare, gold and tacky shit all over the place, way too crowded.
did u guess? im a modern-minimalistic lover.
You will never be able to sleep in that house.
Now lets see here…who should I impersonate next?I have done Taupey and SSSR and Jason!
Hummmm…who will I do next??
In case you didn’t know Fake Taupey I’m a woman and only Comedians, Mentally Confused Transexuals and Gay cross-dressers try to impersonate women. Everyone here knows your not a Comedian.
How terribly boring your miserable puny existance must be.
Everyone here can see by your actions of stealing names typing words and phrases that make you look the Retard and Loser you truely are and always will be.
What’s pathetic is your much to stupid to realize it!
Your could die and no one would care!
Fake Taupey you could die and no one would care!
The nightmare is not the gold, but the poor крепостной who suffered so it could be built. One day the крепостной will united and throw them out. It happened once, but the Soviet leaders did the same to the крепостной. It happened a second time, this time the Soviets were thrown out and now the крепостной are again under the weight. Sad to see the leaders and form of government changes, but the only change is who is putting it to the крепостной. (крепостной is commonly translated as serf. If offically ended in the 1800s, but the mindset lives on.)
Why not build a better life and world for the Russian people? Why build such house?
I love the wiring and lighting seen on the last picture - just the finishing touches the place needed
That’s not like IKEA! ))) I don’t want live there but why not? Is honeycomb better?
I agree that the design is very gaudy, however the craftsmanship that built it is amazing - assuming it was built well. Does anyone know where exactly this place is?
It’s beautifully done and probably has very nice craftsmanship. That being said, it’s more than a little tacky. Not my style either as I tend to be a bit more minimalist, but I could live there. It’s not like it is a bad place to live, especially compared to some of the horrific Moscow apartments that have been featured here.
нихуя себе хата!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!да бля,такую заебёшься убирать,особенно пыль сметать с декораций.
мало мебели в доме и разной аппаратуры!дом как будто пустой.
MTV-Cribs, all over again.
The taste of the working class, that still believes in fairy tales. On top of that, showing off if you can is the standard in russia. Poor people should feel lousy and humble when confronted with money. Disgusting and a waste of fine craftsman ship.
It was a nice style, a long time ago.
It made me sick just looking at all this…
Beautiful. If you have it, flaunt it! I’m sure it’s peaceful out there too. I’m sure and runway, or at least a helicopter pad is quite near.
i am planning a porno-orgy movie in this place - whare is it?
Mosfilm studio.
Can I be in the movie?

I feel much sorrow for these peoples. They must have cannon to scare away robbers> I am wery sad for them.
It looks like they live in a giant Fabergé egg!
I still wonder why Russia went from “Nobody is allowed anything” to “Some people can afford everything while the rest can envy them”…
CAPITALISM…the educated smart Russians prevail!!
They blew all money on the building. Their lawn looks like crap. And where are the fountains? They should know better. For a palace like that, there must be a park with fountains around it.
LEPOTA !!!
ETO CHEI TAKOI ?
MIHALKOVA ?
Well, I speak Russian and could not find anything about museum in this place.
In fact it says that the owner of palace was born in Vyritza (check picture marked as page 270)
So it is private property and jacuzzi there meant to be used.
I’m suprised ther are no russian speaking commenters here.
)
on one of the photographs the text clearly states that this is not someone’s house.. It will be used as a musem and for high level meetings (like governments or Gazprom AGM’s probably
Page 270 says that this was ordered by someone who was originally born in that village.
That is exactly what I wrote, but my comments were ‘awaiting moderation’, meaning: not to be posted. Museum… there is nothing art-like or antique to be seen there… just kitsch.
If Bill Gates was a Puerto Rican pimp his house would look like that.
врядли в IKEA можно чтото выставить в музей.
а этот стиль барокко токо для избранных, и у этой VIPэлиты врядли есть какие либо сомнения в правильности вкуса.
Interesting. Sort of a Baroque Dollhouse for real people. I don’t have any trouble imagining people living there. However, the narrowness that seems to be there from the pictures that were taken makes it seem very claustrophobic. Thanks for the look-see.
It almost seems like an over reaction to the bland greyness that was the typical apartment during communist times. Like the owner is desperately trying to prove that he has made it out of that system. Sadly, it will take time before the average Russian’s lifestyle improves in a market economy. The old generations who grew up in it will have to fade before new generations can build for themselves a life that is better on average based on their own actions and not dependent on someone in authority to do it for them. However, this proves that it is possible. Yet it also proves that good taste takes even longer to acquire than great wealth.
Taste? What’s wrong with the taste here?
If you had not known that this was in Russia would “taste” even have come up?
Yes it would. Tacky is tacky be it in Russia or in Iowa. I have no ill feelings towards the Russian people. I am, in fact, of Russian ancestry with my family having fled the country during the Bolshevik Revolution after members of my family were executed by them. However, that being said, this is all just opinion. I have been far kinder in my comments than some of the other posters here who come here only to troll and not to learn or expand their limited horizons.
I saw some big expensive homes in a suburb of a city by Moscow Russia from the window before the plane landed at Moscow International but nothing as flashy as this house!
Overwhelmingly opulent.
Thank you for the very nice pictures.
This is a fantastic blog.

we dont care about stupid new russians and their lack of taste,better post pictures of some russian cuties!:)
master of the palace - St. Petersburg gangster Sergei Vasiliev
my eyes are bleeding
Looks like amazing work.
Amazing that now there is no any taste in modern Russian design in exterior and interior decoration – all they can do well is to copy modern western styles or copy themselves from the past. Original modern Russian design sucks. Probably that‘s why when they decided to astonish themselves, they made a copy of the richest architecture style in Russian history. However in this case they copied even not the original Russian architecture but the style of Italian and other western architects, who used to build in Russia in 18 century. To tell about the quality of this copy, you need to visit the place and look at the details close by. It may look great only on the picture. But maybe not.
Another wow is the “home church” – the build-in church. Of course, with such money the only thing missing from being the king of kings is God. Now the God is at home too. It stinks more than pictures of KGB Putin in czar’s Kremlin palaces.
Pics 6,7 and 17 look like the inside of the capitol building in Denver Colorado(USA)but not with as much gold!
Other than that this building would blend in well within the walls of the kremlin.
