Heydar Aliyev Center
Designed by&nbsp;Zaha Hadid Architects&nbsp;in Baku,&nbsp;Azerbaijan &ndash; a cultural centre with walls that create a continuing landscape with the surrounding plaza. The outside is just as stunning as in the interior which&nbsp;&nbsp;hosts a variety of cultural programs, its design is a departure from the rigid and often monumental architecture of the former Soviet Union that is so prevalent in Baku, aspiring instead to express the sensibilities and diversity of&nbsp;Azeri culture.
