Naumov S. F., Tyushin Yu. I. School Buildings of Large Capacity / editor B. M. Nadezhin ; cover artist A. E. Koshelev ; art editor M. K. Shevtsov.
Moscow : Publishing House for Construction Literature [Stroiizdat], 1964. — 172 pp., illustrations.
Publisher's plain softcover bound within an illustrated publisher's dust-jacket designed by the artist A. E. Koshelev in a characteristic early-1960s modernist idiom (an orange aerial perspective of a new-type school complex, a blue typographic title-block, sharply contrasting geometric inserts). Slightly enlarged octavo format 70×90/16 (approximately 170×215 mm). Print run of 4,000 copies.
Condition good: the dust-jacket with light age-toning and minor scattered soiling, rubbing and creasing to corners and edges, spine fully preserved.
A scarce technical monograph documenting Soviet thinking on the design of large-capacity secondary schools in the immediate aftermath of Khrushchev's 1958 educational reform "On Strengthening the Connection of the School with Life and on the Further Development of the System of Public Education in the USSR." Sergei Fedorovich Naumov and Yuri Ivanovich Tyushin, both senior staff of the central state institutes for the design of public buildings, examine in detail the architectural, urban-planning and economic case for consolidating Soviet secondary education into 920–960-pupil schools rather than the smaller standardised types that had dominated post-war building. The volume sets out site planning principles, classroom block typologies, the integration of polytechnic workshops, gymnasia, dining halls and assembly halls within a single complex, and the question of multi-shift use; it draws on a comparative survey of contemporary Soviet practice (Moscow, Leningrad, the Baltic republics, the Caucasus) as well as foreign experience, with numerous plans, sections, axonometric drawings and photographs. Beyond its architectural-historical content, the book is of considerable interest to collectors of Soviet design and graphic-design ephemera: the dust-jacket and interior layouts by A. E. Koshelev exemplify the lean, geometric, photo-graphic style of Stroiizdat's mid-1960s output, when the publisher was issuing some of the most visually accomplished technical books in the USSR.
