XXI-st century tomatoes.
XXI-st century tomatoes.
Tomatoes grow in village Tarasovo on a roof.
The rare driver will not kill, passing on Gorkovke by
Villages Tarasovo of Pavlovo-Posadsky area. "In affairs!" - not
People cease to be surprised, considering very strange house
Directly on a road roadside: with a spike glazed by a kitchen garden,
Huge vase (!) and the blue metal globe on a roof.
Here where novorusskaja the architecture has a rest under the full program. And
The globe, both wind turbine, and kitchen garden, and in general all house to
Brick - a handwork of one person: Sergey Fedorovicha Pankratov.
Once this structure named the XXI-st century house. Twenty first
The century has come. And now the house reminds strongly decayed more
Memorial estate, centuries etak the nineteenth.
Fairly to admit, I have been almost assured, that so it and is:
The house - the thrown museum, instead of premises. Close it looked
Even more strange: the fencing which has rusted very, walls with
Showered plaster. I already was going to to leave, as from depth
Kitchen garden there was an old man in a worldly-wise jacket on
Naked body and the shabby trousers.
Excursion has begun with a kitchen garden. Though to name a kitchen garden porosshy
Tall weeds a site difficult. From the back party of the house in thickets of bushes
Something took places round of rusty metal on the glass
Pedestal. On closer examination "something" has appeared
Arbour, and a pedestal from plexiglas - pool.
- Have a seat, I will take for a drive, - the owner has surprised me.
On curve steps I have got upward, the old man has pressed
Any lever in a shed, and - about a miracle! - an arbour on 12 persons with
Scratch has gone.
Rotating arbour which does a full turn in a minute,
75-year-old Sergey Fedorovich Pankratov has thought up and has made:
Calculations, intuition and help material "have helped". They
Have helped to make and all the rest. For example, unique
The glazed kitchen garden on a roof which was the second point of ours
"The excursion program". Everything, that I have seen above, very much
Reminds a usual hothouse, short of, that it is
Over the earth. A total area of a celestial garden site - 104
Square metre. On an "attic" floor vystlan a 25-centimetric layer
Ground on which 380 bushes of tomatoes grow. Hot water
Arrives on a roof on batteries from a basement copper that creates
Under a glass dome effect of a hotbed. The owner put tomatoes not
As all normal summer residents - in March, and in the end of June, but that not
Less they already were poured. Last crop Sergey Fedorovich
Removes... In December.
Having rummaged in a garden season here makes all ones and a half
Month in a year (from December, 15th till February, 1st).
From kitchen garden windows surprising kinds on a roof open, on
The rotating vase, the rotating globe are which,
Lightning rod and special pride of the owner - a wind turbine.
trehsotkilogrammovaja (!) the wonderful vase as it was found out, is made from
Usual metal from a dump. Sergey Fedorovich has decorated its manual
Moulding from keramzita with cement and freakish hieroglyphs.
As the globe basis the metal skeleton too serves, on
Which fiber glass fabric is tense. Pankratov even has copied
Natural longitude and width, has drawn islands and continents,
Has decorated with their beaten mirrors: "continents" are poured on the sun.
But, in opinion "tarasovskogo the architect", any structure should
To have not only aesthetically attractive kind, but also
Functional purpose. For example, in a vase it is possible to arrange
Bed, and on each side to put pots with colours (for them are arranged
12 supports). And as you will become bored - it is possible povrashchat the globe and a vase
Every which way.
Pankratov at all the builder and at all the architect.
He too does not consider itself(himself) as the inventor. It... The philosopher with the
Vital philosophy.
- Especial I have not made anything - so everyone can. The person -
Being universal, besides creative, changing the world so,
As it is necessary for it, - the pensioner speaks.
Till 14 years the Ryazan fellow Serezha Pankratov of the two-storeyed
The house in eyes did not see. And when has seen, it was so impressed, that
Has wanted to live in the such. Now in its house three floors, if
To consider with a cellar and a penthouse. To construct its Sergey Fedorovich
Pankratov has begun only at forty-year age, on building
Has left 16 (!) years. In 1964 he has bought the usual rural
House, and a year later has received the permission of the Village Soviet to reorganisation
Buildings in the brick. But, as Pankratov speaks, in its house is not present
A uniform brick: all is constructed "of an oven", and simply speaking,
From the brick breakage, which Sergey Fedorovich has bought in Electrostal
At a discount.
When the house was ready, it wanted something bolshego. For example,
Wind turbine. That it to construct, Sergey Fedorovich did not get out
From clever books in "Leninke" two winters. Has read almost all
The literature on aerodynamics, wind turbines and
vetroelektrostantsijam, has found even the author of one of books and
Has talked to it. When has imagined the future construction in
Details, undertook job. The pank Ratovsky wind turbine is made from
Fiber glass fabrics, epoksidnoj pitches, a tree and metal. A design
Weighs neither much nor few 120 kgs to lift it on a roof
It was necessary lebedkoj.
... Now Sergey Fedorovich lives one: to help on an economy
There is nobody. But he also does not complain: eats from a kitchen garden, remains even on
Sale. And on the obtained money and pension not only lives, but also...
Is engaged in charity. For example, helps the Mausoleum
And Lenin's to Museum. It is a pity only, with a land kitchen garden does not consult:
Apples and plums vanish. And homework, it is visible, to the old man
Not on forces: the timbered floor has become covered by grey-brown touch, windows with
For a long time nobody washed with freakish metal lattices. Is at
Pankratov apartment in Electrostal, but there it happens seldom. To
To it on a visit to look at nonconventional Russian life more often
Foreigners drop in: there came from France, Sweden, Germany,
Even Japan. Admired, clinked languages. Once Sergey
Fedorovich even has won a prize in one of type telecasts "Make
Itself "- two permits to Canary Islands in five-stars hotel. So not
Has left: it was necessary to buy tickets for dollars, and it them otrodjas not
Saw.
In its "study" of full books: the volumes covered with a dust
Lenin, Gegel. Liked reading matter of the owner - "Criticism Judaic
Religions ", the book about the Bible origin. Here in a table box
Letters from the different ends of the country and the former Union are stored. On
Some and it is written: "Pavlovo-Posadsky area, the wonderful house".
Who asks to help a wind turbine to construct, who - a hothouse, who
- The house... There Came even scientific employees from Belarus, asked
To tell, how it was possible to design a wind turbine.
The owner of the wonderful house in 5 mornings rises, to 11 sticks, then
Has a rest till 5-6 evenings and again for job.
- Excuse, it is time to me to work, - Sergey Fedorovich has informed
Business tone.
It till now in creative process: does a new arbour.
Not rotating - usual.
