        • The interiors were reworked by the brothers Savely and Yegor Arkhipenko, who kept the baking equipment, the flour chutes, the boiler pipes and the bread factory's cast-iron floor.
        • The first exhibition was by Andrew Logan and Irena Kuksenaite in the Globus gallery on the fifth floor.
