Heerim Architects has attempted to reinvent the skyscraper beyond the traditional with two lunar inspired projects in the central Asian republic of Azerbaijan.
The Korean firm has dreamed up Full Moon Bay and Caspian Plus that includes Crescent Place on neighbouring peninsulas in the Azerbaijani capital of Baku that look on to the Caspian Sea – the two projects on opposite extremes of the same bay acting as gateway markers.
Hotel Full Moon is essentially a disc with rounded edges and a hole in one of the top corners that appears radically different to the view depending on the angle it is seen from. The frontage thanks to the bulging centre makes it appear more like a glass death star whilst the side profile is more than a little gherkinesque.
Dear…..
My name is Hugo Vermeulen. I like your futuristic architecture and reconize a lot in the Space Art Sculptures I make from synthetic material. Please have a look, we have many things in common.
Sincerely,
Hugo Vermeulen
i like the design but i think its too plastic as architecture…
I like the front and the side wiew. But the up wiew is plastic.. I like that this is like DeathStar.. Who wants to install it? Sidious Corporation?
Sincerely saying, i’m so impressed to be usually looking at great designers’ works. But, i’m still challenged by what makes great architects, given that not only great inspiration is required!
Please, help me
there is something similar realized in Dubai…
compliments..
I like this comlex. It’s realy great. Hotel (circle form) looks like some kind of ocean organism with a biiig eye, from the deepest spaces
