Laura tries to live an ordinary life of every young
person in a big city--friends, relationships, travels,
parties...Everything is changing when a reputable design company
employs her as an assistant to a dangerously attractive, scandalous
architect and designer, Daniel Polanskiy, whose ambitious and
outstanding projects don't comply with the government views and its
dictated taste. Daniel's colleagues believe he is insane, the press
calls him "Russian Gaudi", the Department of Censorship watches his every movement.

The situation becomes even more
complicated, when Laura meets her Uni-mate from the UK, Mark Evans.
Completely lost between two absolutely different
characters--friendly, amiable Mark and sophisticated, bad-tempered,
but ingenious Daniel--she struggles to whom to give her heart.

The future looks bleak for Laura, as the company gets into trouble, when

gives Daniel the final warning, and one of Laura's friends is killed
by his boyfriend. The plot leads characters through many
challenges--from love to betrayal, from revenge to a murder. The
story which starts like a comedy is turning into a tragedy. Will
friends find their way to follow?
