Design
[edit]The monolithic vault of the station is cut with parallel edges along diagonal channels. As conceived by the authors, the ceiling should resemble the thread of a screw, or the shape of giant machines and give the station an industrial flavor. The design used cast iron: patterned metal plates, small parts and original fittings. The color scheme of the interior is calm, restrained, without much richness and variety of natural stone. The side walls are made of gray and gray-white Nizhny Tagil marble, the floor on the platform is paved with granite slabs. The bas-reliefs on the end walls, dedicated to the workers of Uralmash, were created by the sculptor Vladimir Yegorovich Egorov and the letters in the word "Uralmash" were done by Vyacheslav Butusov.[3]
Technical Characteristics
[edit]- Station construction: single-vaulted shallow station.
- Foundation depth: 6–8 meters.
Lobbies and Transfers
[edit]The station has two underground lobbies. The southern lobby is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Kosmonavtov Avenue and Mashinostroiteley Street, but, in addition, it is connected by a long underground passage with the southwest corner of the same intersection and with the eastern side of Kosmonavtov Avenue. In 2001, this intersection was significantly reconstructed, now tram and trolleybus stops have been moved directly to the metro pavilions. The eastern exit of the underground passage is built into a residential building, which is the only such case in the city. In the inclined tunnels of the southern vestibule, there are short escalators for the ascent (2 belts with two lamps on the balustrade between them) and the usual stairs for the descent. The northern lobby is located next to residential buildings on Kosmonavtov Avenue, not far from the Lavrov Palace of Culture. This lobby, unlike the southern one, has no escalators: there is only a staircase.
Ground Public Transportation
[edit]The station has exits to four stops of all types of ground transport: buses, trolley buses, trams and minibus routes.
