Great October Socialist Revolution of 1917 applied for creation of the new world and first of all - the new person. This new person had to feel, wish, work and create in a new way. To formulate and implement the similar existential project, especially, so global, certain media language, imagination, art - a word, some obligatory means realizing political and subjective functions are required. Since ancient times such function was performed, in particular, in a special way by the organized subject and spatial environment finding the next expression in architecture. It is conventional that architecture - the major and strongest tool and the mechanism of impact on a subject. The architecture creates physical and symbolical borders, defining individual and collective life in a latent way. It is no wonder that the architecture of the first-ever socialist state was one of the most important construction tools of the new world.
