Heydar Aliyev Centre
Clad in reinforced concrete and polyester, the Heydar Aliyev Centre in Azerbaijan is known for its swooping facade. Smooth curves forming the exterior shell, mask extreme engineering. The centre’s interior is marked by its undulating fluid structure, blending walls and floors into ceilings in one continuous flowing motion. “You don’t know where it all starts and ends”, Hadid described.
I have always appreciated those who dare to experiment with materials and proportions.
Inspired by occurrences in nature, the highly reflective surface of the Serenity Platter is interrupted by an undulating edge imitating the impact of a disturbance in a pool of water. This versatile piece is made from polished stainless steel, with a food-safe finish.
The Galaxy Soho’s architecture is a composition of four continuous, flowing volumes that are linked by stretched bridges. There are no corners or abrupt transitions in sight, just seamless, uninterrupted fluid forms that are characteristic of Hadid’s style.
