This creates a sense of dynamics and realism, as Nastya is an architect-designer whose professional path and lifestyle are closely connected with the urban environment.The capital of Russia is shown in the series not only as a place of work and worries, but also as a space where Nastya's external routine and inner emotional experiences collide.

Provincial landscapes and nature reflect the heroine's attempt to get away from the hustle and bustle, to understand her feelings and find balance.
