The Heydar Aliyev Center in Baku, designed by architect Zaha Hadid, is an architectural masterpiece distinguished by its flowing, undulating forms and the absence of sharp angles. The building stands in striking contrast to the stark, monumental Soviet architecture that dominates the city.
The design symbolizes Azerbaijan's transition to a modern nation with an eye to the future, and the unity between the building and the surrounding landscape. The building's surface appears to flow seamlessly from the ground to the roof.
