Baku, Azerbaijan

Lighting design consultants MBLD specified Lumino for the Heydar Aliyev Cultural Centre in Baku, Azerbaijan.  Our Vector flexible modular LED system VPoint 4 was chosen to light ‘fluid form’ interior areas designed by Zaha Hadid Architects.

Emerging from the surrounding landscape, this most fluid of structures provides a major new venue, landmark and source of regeneration for the city of Baku – admitting visitors to a library, museum and conference centre through folds in its continuous outer skin, the interior spaces flooded with natural light via a glass façade. 

Located close to the city centre, the site will play a pivotal role in the redevelopment of Baku.  The project is considered by the government as a project of national importance.
