Heydar Aliyev Center by Zaha Hadid
Designed by zaha hadid architects, 'heydar aliyev center' in the city of baku, azerbaijan, stands as the country's primary building for hosting the former soviet nation's range of cultural programs. in realizing the majestic structure, zaha hadid has employed a sinuous geometry throughout the entirety of the design that sets it apart from the typically rigid and monumental soviet architecture that already defines baku.

herzog & de meuron's new 'messe hall' has taken the place of the site's two original buildings. the main feature differentiating the new structure with the old is the city lounge concept, whereby the traditional courtyard is turned inside out and offers a social space year-round, servicing the main entrances to the north and south foyer and revitalizing exhibition square with a strong public component.

earlier this year, the small town of kastrup in denmark celebratated the public opening of its newest aquarium designed by local practice 3XN. the 'blue planet aquarium' is derived from the nautical swirl, a pattern repeated not only in the fluid behavior of water but throughout marine wildlife design as well, the radial shape also dictates the organization of spaces and circulation.

arranged along a major urban axis and set to create an iconic mark on the chinese landscape, the 'dalian international conference center' has been completed this year. the coophimmelb(l)au design features cantilevered conference spaces and a sweeping, faceted facade. theaters and meeting spaces architectonically match the dynamically perforated exterior and the public ground floor uses parametrically tiled skin to direct reflected light in the space. a 2500 seat conference hall is adjacent to the grand theater and continues the fluidity of the sinuously curved plan.
