Project Description:
Ilya Sibiryakov is an architect and interior designer based in Moscow, Russia. In 2010, he designed the interiors and playground for the Nuevos Horizontes Learning Institute in Medellin, Columbia, a program sponsored by Children Beyond Our Borders to help improve the lives of internally displaced and impoverished youth in Columbia. Sibiryakov's designs are colorful, imaginative, and filled with plenty of natural light. His interiors for the school in Medellin are a child's fairytale come true.
