Heydar Aliyev Cultural Centre is a cultural context being constructed in Baku, Azerbaijan. The complex was designed by Zaha Hadid. The 9 ha project has a great importance as a project for Bakus bid 2016 Olympics. The cultural centre will have a conference hall, 3 auditoriums a museum and a library.
During one of my focus weeks i flew to my home country Baku, Azerbaijan. I was very impressed when i saw this complex by Zaha hadid. It was under construction and it still is. I really liked the idea of fluid shaped complex which emerges by folding of the landscapes natural topography. As it folds inside it becomes the element of the interior. The project itself is very eye catching because of its an unusual shape. By looking at it it doesn't give an impression of a hard materials construction. Instead i got a feeling of something light flowy and stable at the same time. Below are pictures of the complex. one of them is how it looks under construction the others are images of final project.
