The mansion was designed and built in 2005 by the honored architect of Russia, Dmitry Borisovich Barkhin. The concept of the project was to create a faсade in the style of three mansions designed by Vasily Bazhenov. The building is a tribute to the memory of the Prozorovskiy House on Polyanka and is divided into a central section with two projecting risalits. Paired pilasters and an emphasis on the entrance have been incorporated. The mansion features window surrounds inspired by the Dolgov House, which have been simplified and applied to the central part of the structure. The window pediments on the second floor were designed according to Palladio’s drawings, while the crowning Mannerist cornice was designed in accordance with Bazhenov's drawings of the Prozorovskiy House facade.
