In the photo: Ilya Varlamov, his publication about the urban environment of the Russian outback, as well as the topic of urbanism attracts a large audience to his blog. He founded his own architectural and design business Icube.
In particular, together with his wife he created a public space in the center of Izhevsk. According to Forbes, the annual ICube turnover is approximately three million dollars. Childhood, youth, family Ilya was born in the winter of the year in the family of graduates of the Moscow Aviation Institute. Parents worked in the field of aircraft manufacturing for a long time, my mother has a hand in the creation of the Buran orbital Rocket Plan.
In the nineties specialties of aircraft engineers were replaced by the profession of logisters dad and cook mom. Ilya Varlamov in childhood from childhood, Ilya was interested in technology and drawing, his parents sent him to an art school. But already at school, thanks to a neighbor, childhood friend and classmate Nariman Namazov, now the owner of the 2ch imageboard, the boy was seriously interested in computers.
A more experienced comrade helped Ilya to deal with the programs, together they went to the radio market in Mitino for new discs. Ilya Varlamov and Nariman Namazov were still friends of childhood by the blogger recalls one of the most unpleasant sounds in his life: a click of a modem, which meant that the connection with the Internet was gone: then they went out on the Internet and had to get through.
The situation was complicated by the fact that I had a paired phone at home, and a neighbor, such a bitch, liked to chat for hours. And for hours I waited for him to finish chatting to call on the Internet. And the brightest memory of the time when you are sitting on the Internet, playing or downloading something, and then the connection breaks off, it is heard ... a click ...
like a shot! This meant that the connection disappeared, and the neighbor was occupied by a neighbor! Once at a school change, Nariman said that he installed a 3D Studio Max program on a computer in which you can draw a 3D picture. Ilya installed it for himself and began to study. If a friend pampered and quickly cooled, Varlamov was seriously carried away by three -dimensional graphics, read dozens of books on 3D Studio Max, spent whole days at the computer.
He independently created his first videos with the heroes invented by him, laid out his pictures on the school site, which he himself created. Having received a certificate, the young man entered the architectural institute in the capital, since, it was necessary to give there interesting objects. From the first year, Varlamov began to carry out freelancer orders, performing a 3D visualization of various projects, and when he switched to the third year, he created his own graphic studio “2 in Cuba” in tandem with Artem Gorbachev.
Their business developed rapidly, since there were practically no professionals in the field of computer design and architecture in the market of that time. The guys from the very beginning did everything "in an adult way." Ilya Varlamov, in his youth, fame about architectural geniuses spread quickly, and already in the year a very large customer appeared in the studio, whose name was kept secret.
He offered to move to a modern office, paid each employee Varlamov at that time there were eight of fifty dollars per hour. There was a lot of work. The studio was renamed Icube and soon became a group of companies. At 22, he managed to buy an apartment for himself and moved to a new Lexus model. It seemed that nothing could interfere with further development and promotion, but the financial crisis upset all Varlamov’s plans.
The flow of orders was sharply reduced, the construction almost froze. The bank in which Icube held the savings was deprived of a license, and the money has sunk into oblivion. There was nothing even to pay for the rent. Ilya was afraid that they could arrest all the equipment and urgently took her out of the office, which was removed from the entrepreneur Sofya Trotsenko. Varlamov is one of the first Russian computer design experts in architecture later he left all the financial problems, and at that moment Varlamov and his partner were dismissed home almost everyone, five people left for work for the most persistent customers.
Ilya did not begin to restore the business and went on a trip to think about new projects at the same time. Before him was the whole world, and in his hands - the Canon camera. At some point, Barlamov realized that he was spending too much time on repeating stories about the impressions of travel and decided to post his photo reports with a description on the Internet. He scored in the search engine “The most popular blog platform”, and he was a live magazine.
His photos and posts began to fly quickly on the Internet, but he took place as a blogger he was gle by year. Reading interest encouraged Ilya to create a 10 -step post - Moscow for people, in which he raised the acutely social problems of the urban environment.Varlamov emphasized that in the capital they think about the interests of ordinary people at the very last moment, there are no ramps for disabled people, bicycle paths, parking lots and the like.
Muscovites, and then residents of other cities of Russia, pulled first in his blog. How to improve your yard? Tips from Ilya Varlamov supplying his posts with unique photos, sincerely sharing his impressions, Ilya soon became the best blogger on the platform of a living magazine. He himself talked about his success: why is the topic of urbanism so bombed? Yes, she just worries everyone.
The people began to think about how and in which cities it is comfortable to live, began to reflect on the ecology, accessibility and justice of the city. The world is changing, the cities are changing and not only Moscow. Urbanics is a global trend that I managed to catch. Varlamov began to publish articles that exposed the inefficient work of officials, even became the founder of the “glass bolt” anti -aircraft by analogy with Silver Kalosha, which was awarded for the most dubious “achievements” for the improvement of the capital.
But there were no sponsors on the stem of officials, and the “glass bolt” lasted only a year. In the year, Ilya was proposed to lead the Ridus, the just created socio-political publication. Understanding that financing will go from the air -state sources, Varlamov put forward the condition: no one will intervene in their work. At first the sponsors agreed. But several months passed, and the debugged scheme was staggered, the freedom of a blogger published a photo from a swamp square removed with the help of drones began to be limited.
Accustomed to working for himself, Ilya felt serious discomfort and stopped cooperation with Ridus, without working there. Moreover, the Haters took up arms against his activities, accusing of the payment of materials and pro -Kremlin propaganda. The blogger refuted his involvement in this, saying that if Russian President Vladimir Putin came to him for some kind of advertising, he would not make him discounts.
Varlamov tried to become the mayor of Omsk, but the cost of one post on Ilya’s blog was about half a million rubles, while he was charged with two published posts of two hundred thousand for each. There was a Barlamov biography and an attempt to score political glasses and become the mayor of Omsk, but the attempt failed immediately after the qualifying round. Other projects traveling around the world, Ilya found ideas for a business fresh for Russia.
He, along with Alexander Kolesnikov, began to carry Bisiclets to Moscow Bicycles of Peugeot, then organized the sale of Danish Christmas trees under his own brand. This business exists today. At the same time, the reconstruction of the Izhevsk Center Izhevsk did not forget to tell people about city problems. He picked up a format in which the positive aspects were first described, and then the negative moments of the city’s life.
So, in the year, the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, even gathered a meeting at which he ordered officials to deal with the existing problems that Ilya reported on his blog. After the BDSM format “Big Road with the mayor”, opening his own channel on YouTube and an account in social networks, gained even greater popularity. It is known as the founder of the City Projects and Attention funds, as well as the creator of the Varlamov project, this is a network of local kitchens, from where homemade food at low prices is brought to customers for half an hour.
He is also the author of the book “Councils to the mayor”, in which he warns urban planners and municipal officials against common improvement errors. For the publication, they came up with an interesting advertisement: a meter is being conducted on the site “Enlighten the official” showing how many Russian officials from this book were already read. And visitors have the opportunity to buy and send it to the official in his city.
The woman already had a first marriage and little son behind her. From Izhevsk, she moved to Moscow and got a job at Varlamov’s company. After some time, the couple registered their relationship, two more children appeared in their family-Elena and Lev Ilya Varlamov with his wife and children once the blogger decided to determine his national affiliation and a special and detailed DNA test was held.
When Varlamov received his results in his hands, he publicly announced that the largest percentage of all relationships falls on Ukrainian nationality. Ilya Varlamov is now the Pandemia of the Coronavirus of the year did not bypass the popular blogger. He felt unwell after training, a little nauseous. I slept badly at night, and the next day the temperature rose.
After the medical consultation, a preliminary diagnosis of Koronavirus was made, and after eight days of self -isolation, Varlamov found out the results of the CT, from which he followed that he had a viral infection “with a high probability of Covid, the blogger described in detail the entire course and treatment of the disease.
