View Full Version : BAKU | Projects & Construction Galandar April 20th, 2008, 07:29 AM In this thread we are going to put together all the UNDER CONSTRUCTION and APPROVED projects of Baku: Galandar April 20th, 2008, 07:34 AM FULL MOON RISING and CRESCENT TOWER - APPROVED Heerim Architects has attempted to reinvent the skyscraper beyond the traditional with two lunar inspired projects in the 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. Changing appearance depending on the view is reinforced by the cladding treatment the architect has selected. The front will have a glass diagrid whilst the back will be covered with hexagonal honeycombs. This main building will be a 35 storey luxury hotel with 104,182 square metres of space for only 382 rooms, a relatively small amount of rooms given the sheer size of the internal space on offer. It will reach a maximum height of 158.68 metres. The hotel is linked via a zoomorphically shaped podium that snakes curvaceously around the boundaries of the site to two residential apartment blocks entitled Palace of Wind 1 and 2. Acting as the counterpoint to Hotel Full Moon is Hotel Crescent, part of the Caspian Plus redevelopment that stands as a curving arch similar to a crescent moon. The arch-like nature of the building is revealed by the fact that the structure isn't a pure crescent on its inside relying on more regularly shaped columns to help provide it with support. At 32 floors tall it will also be a luxury hotel, this time with 221 rooms. There will also be 128 serviced apartments in the building. Floor space will 128,140 square metres. Behind it will stand a further four tall buildings, three of which will be residential with the tallest of the quartet being a 43 floor office building standing 203 metres tall. Heerim Architects have not long been established in Azerbaijan. They only opened their office in the country in July 2007 and yet have already secured these two major projects that face transforming the capital of one of the world's fastest growing economies.

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. Changing appearance depending on the view is reinforced by the cladding treatment the architect has selected. The front will have a glass diagrid whilst the back will be covered with hexagonal honeycombs. This main building will be a 35 storey luxury hotel with 104,182 square metres of space for only 382 rooms, a relatively small amount of rooms given the sheer size of the internal space on offer. It will reach a maximum height of 158.68 metres. The hotel is linked via a zoomorphically shaped podium that snakes curvaceously around the boundaries of the site to two residential apartment blocks entitled Palace of Wind 1 and 2. Acting as the counterpoint to Hotel Full Moon is Hotel Crescent, part of the Caspian Plus redevelopment that stands as a curving arch similar to a crescent moon. The arch-like nature of the building is revealed by the fact that the structure isn't a pure crescent on its inside relying on more regularly shaped columns to help provide it with support. At 32 floors tall it will also be a luxury hotel, this time with 221 rooms. There will also be 128 serviced apartments in the building. Floor space will 128,140 square metres. Behind it will stand a further four tall buildings, three of which will be residential with the tallest of the quartet being a 43 floor office building standing 203 metres tall. Heerim Architects have not long been established in Azerbaijan. They only opened their office in the country in July 2007 and yet have already secured these two major projects that face transforming the capital of one of the world's fastest growing economies.

As for those pictures of Baku Center think it is just an alternative to the project of Flame Towers and it is possible that the towers will be like in the picture of Baku Center rather than in the pics of Flame Towers. PARK PLAZA BAKU - This name of Xi Park Plaza is official for that project. Some works for Park Plaza have been already done, but the works has been on hold since winter 2008. A few days ago i have seen some machines and workers on that territory. I suppose they are going torestart the work on eection of Park Plaza Baku.

Thank you very much for your information and photos of City Star project.

The City Star towers are very impressive. I haven’t seen this development. Is it on Yusif Safarov Street? Mstyle September 25th, 2008, 02:40 PM no its on E. Ovchiyev street its when ur goin from Neftchilar hospital to Azal Galandar September 25th, 2008, 09:24 PM no its on E. Ovchiyev street its when ur goin from Neftchilar hospital to Azal I am glad to see all those news and pictures of City Star. Aral Group is finishing the other projects - Esra Plaza, Babek Plaza, "Roseville" residential complex and the only project left is "City Star". They wanted to have no more projects along with "City Star". As i understand, Aral Group has recently started the active period of construction at their biggest project. I saw many workers and machines on the site few days ago when i was in Baku. I suppose we will see the real City Star in 3 years. Galandar September 25th, 2008, 09:36 PM Besides i have an interesting news from DIA HOLDING. For those who are interested in their project i advice to enter to their website http://www.diaholding.com They have some new interesting projects. They have fixed the shape of the Pearl hotel. It is much better now. Another interesting project is the high-rise office tower. The shape of this tower is very similar to Empire State Building in NYC.

I would like to outline that the things you wrote have nothing to do with this thread. Azerbaijan is Azerbaijan, azerbaijanies are azerbaijanies. I don't care about being european. We have some european influence and that is the fact. By and large, I am azerbaijani and that is the point!
