Heydar Aliev Cultural Center in Baku is one of the key buildings of 2012 - Architectural Digest

The Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center in Baku was included in the short list

of the key buildings of 2012 of the Architectural Digest.

The Heydar Aliyev Center was built as a fluid form constructed of

glass-reinforced concrete that emerges from the folds of the

landscape’s natural topography. This major new venue will play a

pivotal role in the redevelopment of the Azerbaijani capital, housing

a conference hall with three auditoriums, a library, and a national

museum.
