Steel structures are melted using the latest technology, this condition provides a more stable and solid foundation, on which the enormous weight of the surface materials.
The building looks amazing against the general background, its smooth curves, immaculate and elegant image charms.

What inspired Zaha Hadid to design the cultural center in Baku, and how does the building reflect the cultural heritage of Azerbaijan?
The conceptual design of the cultural center in Baku looks absolutely amazing! I’m curious to know more about the inspiration behind Zaha Zadid’s vision for this project. What elements did she incorporate to reflect the cultural significance of Baku?
Can you provide more information about the conceptual design of the cultural center in Baku by Zaha Zadid? I am particularly interested in seeing the construction photos to better understand the progress and architectural vision behind this legendary project.
