Project 1000 Museum In Miami Beach

For an architect who occupies a Z-dimension all her own, Zaha Hadid, Hon. FAIA, has seldom constructed high along that Z axis.

She has built many multi-level and midrise institutional buildings, but very few towers. That is about to change with the on One Thousand Museum, a 66-story, 83-unit, super-luxury condominium tower on Biscayne Boulevard in Miami, opposite Museum Park, with views across Biscayne Bay to Miami Beach.

The project is no less Zaha at this unprecedented scale. A concrete exoskeleton structures the perimeter of

the tower in a web of flowing lines that integrates lateral bracing within the lines of structural support. Columnar lines near the base splay out to meet at the corners, forming a rigid tube highly resistant to Miami’s demanding wind loads.

Project 1000 Museum In Miami Beach

With structure at the perimeter, the interior floor plates are almost column free, allowing maximum variation in floor plans. The bottom two-thirds of the tower has two units per floor, while the upper third boasts units that occupy the entire floor. The moving, curving lines of the exoskeleton mean that each succeeding floor plan is slightly different from the last. On the lower floors, terraces occupy the corners; on the upper floors, the terraces are tucked in from the edges.

A duplex penthouse occupies the last two residential floors. The final floor features an aquatic center, leisure area, and event space.

There is commercial space at the base, along with several stories of parking. At grade, the tower is ringed by pools and gardens. 

Zaha Hadid Architects project director Chris Lepine says that the structure—which appears as if it were eroded from a solid reads from top to bottom as one continuous liquid frame.

Project 1000 Museum In Miami Beach

The tower represents a line of research in high-rise construction that explores a fluid architectural expression consistent with engineering for the entire height of the structure. The emphasis is on expressing the dynamism of the structure in an integrated whole that avoids the frequent typology of a tower resting on a base.

Lepine points out that while the architects have worked to express the structure and its beauty within a tall, slender tower, the structure itself is “purposeful” in that it is rigid, stiff, and hurricane resistant. It's not a diagrid structure but its curving lines allow a diagonal bracketing action. “We had this idea of a fluidity that is both structural and architectural,” Lepine says.

perspective Project 1000 Museum, Zaha Hadid 

Instead of simply cladding a steel frame, the architects are designing expressive form-work, which can be reused as construction progresses up the tower. The concrete will be painted so that its finished surface is also the architectural finish. “A lot of innovation comes in how we build the form work. We’re looking at several solutions,” continues Lepine. Behind the exoskeleton, the architects have created a folded, faceted, crystallike façade to contrast with the solidity of the exoskeleton. The dependable Miami sun will create plays of light on the glass within the structural frame.

 Project 1000 Museum

“What you see is literally structure getting thicker and thinner, as needed," Lepine says. "There’s a continuity

between the disciplines, between the architecture and engineering, to create that impression.”

Elevation the tower

Developers Gregg Covin and Louis Birdman of One Thousand Museum Limited commissioned Hadid to do the design, in association with the local architect of record, O’Donnell Dannwolf Partners Architects.

Hadid started One Thousand Museum after being commissioned to design Collins  Park Garage, a combination parking garage and public plaza now also in working drawings. There will soon be two notable Hadid structures in Miami as Hadid finally breaks into large-scale construction in the United States.

Site Plan Of Airport Terminal Building Daxing, China - Zaha hadid

Design Description :

The Beijing New Airport terminal building will be extremely user-focussed, efficient, adaptable and sustainable for future growth to serve the world’s fastest growing aviation sector. The client, Beijing New Airport Headquarters, adopted the 6-pier radial concept developed by ADPI as it gives exceptional functionality and flexibility.

Design Airport Terminal Building Daxing, China - Zaha hadid

The design celebrates the connectivity and dynamism of air travel; expressed as a sequence of inspirational inter-connected public spaces. The flowing rooflines cover the large, column-free spaces and provide a sense of scale and orientation – welcoming the world to Beijing. All of the passenger pathways through the terminal converge within the central courtyard, creating a multi-layered civic space - a public square and meeting place for passengers from around the globe - at the very heart of the terminal.

The terminal’s compact design minimizes the distances between check-in and gate, and also the distances between gates for transferring passengers. These transferring passengers will disembark and walk a short distance to the central courtyard, then on to their next gate. Aircraft piers radiate outwards from this central space, maximizing the number of planes that can park adjacent to the terminal.

International and domestic passenger areas are separated vertically – not spread out horizontally as at most other airports. This further contributes to a more compact terminal building.

The radial layout greatly improves adaptability and sustainability by enabling the terminal to operate in the many different configurations most appropriate to the varying aircraft and passenger traffic throughout each day. The compact design also reduces the requirements for shuttle trains between the many terminals that are common at other large airports. The installation, maintenance and operation of shuttle trains is expensive, with constant energy demands to continually ferry passengers through the airport. The radial design of the Beijing New Airport Terminal enables passengers to simply walk the short distances to everywhere they need to go within the airport.

Design Airport Terminal Building Daxing, China - Zaha hadid

Housing many departure gates in one terminal with a single passenger handling centre – rather than building an airport with many smaller terminals and many handling systems – is also beneficial. This ultimately reduces the carbon footprint of the airport throughout its construction and operational lifetime – further contributing to reaching the airport’s very high targets of environmental management and sustainability.

Although large to accommodate the many passengers and aircraft, the terminal building maintains a relationship to a human scale and sense of direction. These characteristics have evolved from traditional Chinese architecture where intricate compositions of connecting volumes define exterior and interior spaces that guide visitors as they progress through the architecture. In this airport terminal design, passengers are similarly guided seamlessly through the building via a sequence of public spaces that flow into each other, leading to the grand central courtyard - the primary gathering space for departing, arriving and transferring global passengers - ensuring every visitor has the most convenient and enjoyable user experience.

The overall symmetry of the airport terminal design, together with its flowing, interconnected forms create a fluid composition which evokes the harmony and balance evident in Chinese natural landscapes, while its colours and materials are an expression of visual language within traditional Chinese culture. The design of the new terminal reflects China’s rich cultural history and its remarkable future at the centre of a worldwide stage.

Press Statement :
ADP Ingeniérie (ADPI) and Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA) have completed the concept design for the world’s largest airport passenger terminal - the Beijing New Airport Terminal Building - in Daxing, Beijing, under the leadership of the Beijing New Airport Headquarters (BNAH), based on the bid-winning planning scheme by ADPI.

Design Airport Terminal Building Daxing, China - Zaha hadid

Following the 2011 international competition bid, in October 2014 the Beijing New Airport Headquarters created a Joint Design Team bringing together ADPI and Zaha Hadid Architects with competition consortium group members Buro Happold, Mott Macdonald and EC Harris to collaborate on the optimised concept design for the Beijing New Airport Terminal Building.
With Beijing’s existing Capital Airport already exceeding its planned capacity, the new airport will serve the world’s fastest growing aviation sector and enable further connections between Beijing and cultural, economic and civic centres around the globe. Initially accommodating 45 million passengers per year and expanding to 72 million, the new terminal will be adaptable and sustainable, operating in many different configurations dependant on varying aircraft and passenger traffic throughout each day. With an integrated multi-modal transport centre featuring direct links to local and national rail services including the Gaotie high speed rail, the new Daxing airport will be a key hub within Beijing’s growing transport network and a catalyst for the region’s economic development, including the city of Tianjin and Hebei Province

Design Airport Terminal Building Daxing, China - Zaha hadid

The Joint Design Team scheme integrates principles originally developed during the competition phase by ADPI and the Zaha Hadid Consortium Group respectively, which included Pascall+Watson, Buro Happold, Mott Macdonald and EC Harris. ZHA’s projects include some of the world’s most popular, user-focused and adaptable civic architecture that prioritises the public realm and user experience. This expertise, together with ADPI’s history and knowledge of airport planning and development, will ensure the new terminal at Daxing to be the world’s most convenient, sustainable and future-proof airport.
Following the completion of the concept design stage, the project is now being led by the Local Design Institute team under the continued leadership of BNAH.

ZaHa Hadid Design Bee’ah Headquarters in Sharjah, UAE

ZaHa Hadid Design Bee’ah Headquarters in Sharjah, UAE

 Bee’ah, the Middle East’s leading fully integrated environmental and waste management company has commissioned Zaha Hadid Architects to build its new Headquarters Building in Sharjah, UAE, following the 2013 international competition.

ZaHa Hadid Design Bee’ah Headquarters in Sharjah, UAE

The new Headquarters Building is part of Bee’ah’s ongoing work and investment to transform attitudes and behaviours in individuals, communities, businesses and cities by providing the infrastructure, tools and support to achieve their environmental goals. Working towards achieving its Zero-Waste to landfill, cleaner air and water, renewable energy and sustainable future targets, Bee’ah is developing and providing coherent and sustainable environmental solutions to meet the challenges of the community it serves.

Recognizing that awareness and education are essential to achieving its goals, Bee’ah operates the Bee’ah School of Environment (BSOE), which aims to develop a ‘greener future generation’ through environmental learning and approved tools that help children understand their vital role in environmental responsibility. To date, 174,000 children in over 210 schools across the emirate have participated in its ongoing programs. 

Educational facilities and exhibition spaces within the new Headquarters Building will enable Bee’ah to further its community engagement programs and outreach initiatives.

 Bee’ah Headquarters in Sharjah, UAE

With its commitment to the Zero-Waste to landfill target for the emirate of Sharjah, Bee’ah is collaborating with experts around the world to formulate necessary environmental and waste management strategies, develop legislative policies, train and develop staff capabilities, and improve waste treatment and recycling methods by establishing facilities and initiatives to build an integrated social, industrial and economic framework that promotes recycling. By converting material and physical waste into recycled resources that can be re-used by the community, Bee’ah is leading positive environmental change in the Middle East.

Bee’ah’s new Headquarters will enable the company to manage and deliver further advancements in environmental services. These include even greater operational effectiveness of its Waste Management Centre which represents an entirely new approach to managing waste in the region with a number of industrial, commercial and residential waste diversion operations and facilities that include the Material Recovery Facility (the third largest in the world); the Construction & Demolition Waste Recycling Facility; the Tyre Recycling Facility (the first of its kind in the region using an environmentally-friendly cryogenic processes); the Compost Plant which processes organic and green waste into fertilizer; the industrial and wastewater lagoons to process liquid waste; the end-of-life vehicle and metal shredding facility as well as a number of other recycling and material processing facilities.

Interior Bee’ah Headquarters - Zaha Hadid

Bee’ah, as an organisation, is converting waste from being something that is a consumptive byproduct of society to something that can be core to society’s future. This has been achieved by transforming both materials (though recovery and energy generation) and society (via social outreach and educational programs) to create a holistic ecosystem for the future.

The Bee’ah Headquarters Building embodies these principles by providing the company with a administrative centre of sustainable construction of LEED Platinum Certification, with ultra-low carbon and minimal water consumption in operation and minimised material consumption in construction. The new building and site will also be used as a learning resource to demonstrate practical environmental awareness to the wider community.

Bee’ah Headquarters - Zaha Hadid

Bee’ah aims to set new standards in the UAE through utilising 100% green renewable energy sources to power its new Headquarters and ensuring that the maximum amount of recycled materials recovered from waste are used in its construction.

The Headquarters Building has been designed with environmental considerations woven into every aspect of the design using a hierarchical approach to first limit the need to consume resources; where resources are required - to minimise their consumption; and finally to offset consumption of resources through the harvesting of renewable systems.

Designed in response to its natural environment to provide comfort for its occupants alongside minimising energy and resource consumption, the formal composition of the new Bee’ah Headquarters Building has been informed by its desert context as a series of intersecting dunes orientated to accommodate the prevailing Shamal winds, and developed to ensure the internal spaces are provided with ample high quality daylight and views whilst limiting the quantity of glazing exposed to the harsh sun.

Bee’ah Headquarters - Zaha Hadid

The 7,000 sq. m. Bee’ah Headquarters is located on a 90,000 sq. m. site adjacent to the Bee’ah Waste Management Centre. The large site enabled the development of the design as an array of dunes within its desert landscape leading to the two central dunes of the Headquarters Building.
The two primary dunes of the Bee’ah Headquarters Building house the public and management section (entrance lobby, auditorium, visitors education centre and gallery, and management offices), and the administrative section (departmental offices and staff café). The two dunes intersect and connect via a central courtyard that forms an ‘oasis’ inside the building - enhancing the natural ventilation and maximising indirect sunlight to the public and administrative spaces within.

Bee’ah Headquarters - Zaha Hadid

The building systems of the new Headquarters have been developed in conjunction with Atelier Ten to minimise both the energy required for cooling and the need for potable water consumption. In milder months, the façade is operable to allow natural ventilation - minimising the need to provide cooling to the building. When conditioning is required, it will be optimised for energy conservation via the use of ventilation energy recovery - allowing fresh air into the spaces with reduced energy impact, and the waste heat that would normally be rejected from the chillers into the atmosphere is to be harvested to provide free pre-heating of the domestic hot water supplies.

Bee’ah Headquarters - Zaha Hadid

The exterior finishes of the building have been selected to reflect the sun’s rays and help to further reduce energy consumption by providing a local heat profile that is akin to the natural desert environment rather than the high heat profiles associated with conventional roofing systems.
These active and passive energy approaches are predicted to provide a 30% reduction in energy consumption. All power required for the building will be generated via low and zero carbon sources, principally from the adjacent Bee’ah Waste Management Centre’s conversion of municipal waste (that would otherwise decay in landfill) into energy, together with large arrays of photovoltaic cells incorporated within the site’s landscaping.

Bee’ah Headquarters - Zaha Hadid

The building’s structure has been developed in conjunction with Buro Happold to minimise material consumption through architectural and structural integration. Individual elements of the building’s structure and skin are of standard orthogonal dimensions, enabling significant portions to be constructed from materials recovered from the local construction and demolition waste streams managed by Bee’ah, minimising demand for new materials.

Bee’ah’s expertise and experience of recovered water recycling for non-potable use has enabled the design to be developed for exceptionally low potable water consumption. Internal fixtures and fittings will be installed to conserve water to exceptional levels. Native or adaptive species of vegetation will be incorporated to minimise the need for irrigation, with recovered and recycled non-potable water being used where irrigation is required and landscaping.

Bee’ah Headquarters - Zaha Hadid

The new Bee’ah Headquarters Building is defined by the same principles that are the foundation of the company’s mission to provide coherent and sustainable environmental solutions to meet the future challenges of the communities its serves; leading by example in creating a work environment for Bee’ah to continue its commitment to provide integrated environmental and waste management services of the highest standards.

Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center / Zaha Hadid

Project  HEYDAR ALIYEV CENTER Designer By Architect, Zaha Hadid .

Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center

As part of the former Soviet Union, the urbanism and architecture of Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan on the Western coast of the Caspian Sea, was heavily influenced by the planning of that era. Since its independence in 1991, Azerbaijan has invested heavily in modernising and developing Baku’s infrastructure and architecture, departing from its legacy of normative Soviet Modernism.

Zaha Hadid Architects was appointed as design architects of the Heydar Aliyev Center following a competition in 2007. The Center, designed to become the primary building for the nation’s cultural programs, breaks from the rigid and often monumental Soviet architecture that is so prevalent in Baku, aspiring instead to express the sensibilities of Azeri culture and the optimism of a nation that looks to the future.

View Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center

• Design concept / Zaha Hadid:

The design of the Heydar Aliyev Center establishes a continuous, fluid relationship between its surrounding plaza and the building’s interior. The plaza, as the ground surface; accessible to all as part of Baku’s urban fabric, rises to envelop an equally public interior space and define a sequence of event spaces dedicated to the collective celebration of contemporary and traditional Azeri culture. Elaborate formations such as undulations, bifurcations, folds, and inflections modify this plaza surface into an architectural landscape that performs a multitude of functions: welcoming, embracing, and directing visitors through different levels of the interior. With this gesture, the building blurs the conventional differentiation between architectural object and urban landscape, building envelope and urban plaza, figure and ground, interior and exterior.

View Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center

Fluidity in architecture is not new to this region. In historical Islamic architecture, rows, grids, or sequences of columns flow to infinity like trees in a forest, establishing non-hierarchical space. Continuous calligraphic and ornamental patterns flow from carpets to walls, walls to ceilings, ceilings to domes, establishing seamless relationships and blurring distinctions between architectural elements and the ground they inhabit. Our intention was to relate to that historical understanding of architecture, not through the use of mimicry or a limiting adherence to the iconography of the past, but rather by developing a firmly contemporary interpretation, reflecting a more nuanced understanding.

Responding to the topographic sheer drop that formerly split the site in two, the project introduces a precisely terraced landscape that establishes alternative connections and routes between public plaza, building, and underground parking. This solution avoids additional excavation and landfill, and successfully converts an initial disadvantage of the site into a key design feature.

Zaha Hadid Design project of Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center

• Geometry, structure, materiality :

One of the most critical yet challenging elements of the project was the architectural development of the building’s skin. Our ambition to achieve a surface so continuous that it appears homogenous, required a broad range of different functions, construction logics and technical systems had to be brought together and integrated into the building’s envelope. Advanced computing allowed for the continuous control and communication of these complexities among the numerous project participants.

Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center

The Heydar Aliyev Center principally consists of two collaborating systems: a concrete structure combined with a space frame system. In order to achieve large-scale column-free spaces that allow the visitor to experience the fluidity of the interior, vertical structural elements are absorbed by the envelope and curtain wall system. The particular surface geometry fosters unconventional structural solutions, such as the introduction of curved ‘boot columns’ to achieve the inverse peel of the surface from the ground to the West of the building, and the ‘dovetail’ tapering of the cantilever beams that support the building envelope to the East of the site

Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center

The space frame system enabled the construction of a free-form structure and saved significant time throughout the construction process, while the substructure was developed to incorporate a flexible relationship between the rigid grid of the space frame and the free-formed exterior cladding seams. These seams were derived from a process of rationalizing the complex geometry, usage, and aesthetics of the project. Glass Fibre Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) and Glass Fibre Reinforced Polyester (GFRP) were chosen as ideal cladding materials, as they allow for the powerful plasticity of the building’s design while responding to very different functional demands related to a variety of situations: plaza, transitional zones and envelope.

Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center

In this architectural composition, if the surface is the music, then the seams between the panels are the rhythm. Numerous studies were carried out on the surface geometry to rationalize the panels while maintaining continuity throughout the building and landscape. The seams promote a greater understanding of the project’s scale. They emphasize the continual transformation and implied motion of its fluid geometry, offering a pragmatic solution to practical construction issues such as manufacturing, handling, transportation and assembly; and answering technical concerns such as accommodating movement due to deflection, external loads, temperature change, seismic activity and wind loading.

exterior and interior, the lighting of the Heydar Aliyev Center

To emphasize the continuous relationship between the building’s exterior and interior, the lighting of the Heydar Aliyev Center has been very carefully considered. The lighting design strategy differentiates the day and night reading of the building. During the day, the building’s volume reflects light, constantly altering the Center’s appearance according to the time of day and viewing perspective. The use of semi-reflective glass gives tantalizing glimpses within, arousing curiosity without revealing the fluid trajectory of spaces inside. At night, this character is gradually transformed by means of lighting that washes from the interior onto the exterior surfaces, unfolding the formal composition to reveal its content and maintaining the fluidity between interior and exterior.

Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center

As with all of our work, the Heydar Aliyev Center’s design evolved from our investigations and research of the site’s topography and the Center’s role within its broader cultural landscape. By employing these articulate relationships, the design is embedded within this context; unfolding the future cultural possibilities for the nation.

Best Residential architecture in California (USA)

The design of a residential house in the very magnificence and beauty in the United States.

Residential House In USA

The house consists of interlocking volumes modern, providing a sharp contrast with its surroundings.

Deiser Residence

The stair-stepping scheme of this single-family residence stays under the city’s sloping height limit while creating views at each floor level. The garage, at the lowest part of the design, is separated from the balance of the building by a landscaped area that creates a natural yard for the living spaces. This project is an aggressive piece of architecture that sits between two turn-of-the-century bungalow buildings. As you can see from the street rendering, the forms relate to the scale of the neighborhood structures through transparent planes. The orange element (later changed to burgundy in final building) at the north side of the building is the circulation module for the structure. It marries the main entry on the street to the side entry at the west alley giving visual access throughout.

Deiser Residence

The small view deck was designed to slide under the height limit and provides a view of all three local piers, which can only be seen from that furthest west vanishing point. This steel and glass element completes the composition of the Dieser residence with a gravity defying “tech” look which is in stark contrast to the quaint surrounding homes.

Residential House In USA

According to the architects themselves, they sought to create the house with the wishes of its customers, as well as combining the best architectural finds of the past, with creativity, original design and modern technology. The result of this philosophy was the residence of Dieser Residence, which can be called a great house, corresponding human needs in comfort, safety, economy and aesthetics.

Residential House In USA

Residential House In USA

The construction and the facade looks very original, and, of course, strongly stand out against the neighboring buildings. Huge windows let in the house a lot of light, and a snow-white background predominant walls lined plasterboard, the price per sheet for gipstrade.ru not much different from the US, only underscores how bright, spacious and interesting to get inside the building.
