Alisher Navoi International Scientific Research Centre, Uzbekistan

Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA) have been announced as the architects for the Alisher Navoi International Scientific Research Centre, an expansive cultural and educational facility taking shape in Uzbekistan. The center is set to incorporate the Navoi State Museum of Literature, along with a 400-seat auditorium and an International Research Center and residential school dedicated to training 200 students in the Uzbek language, literature, and music.

The architecture of the development pays tribute to Uzbekistan's cultural and artistic heritage. The arched façade and interiors are designed to be built with local bricks. Inspired by the wind towers typical of Central Asian and Middle Eastern architecture, the building's arches function as hollow structures that channel cool air into the interior, even during hot months. The outdoor spaces feature a series of landscaped terraces, open-air amphitheaters, and shaded pavilions.
