 Fluid introduction
 Fluid implies seamlessness i.e.,
moving from one thing to
another easily and without
any interruptions or problems
 Movement in architecture
refers to the arrangement of
parts that give the building a
sense of motion.

 Wright decided to adopt a continuous,
organic shape with a large central void

 The space is unified-no traditional
exhibition halls or secluded treasure

 People gently walk on a ramp while
admiring the paintings arranged along

Zaha Hadid’s Patterns of form

Heydar Aliyev culture centre Beko: Belgrade, Serbia

The peak: Hong Kong(1982-83)
(1) Suprematist pattern- use
Baku, Azerbaijan(2007-12) (3) Fluid pattern- continuous
(2) Topographic pattern- inspired from form
fundamental geometric forms
natural landscape - Continuous curved surfaces
-
- Have seamless and fluid surfaces
 Zaha Hadid’s Patterns of form

Regium Waterfront Reggio, Italy(2007) Galaxy SOHO: Beijing, China

(4) Organic pattern- inspired from nature (5) Parametric pattern- flexible
- Have irregular and curvy surfaces - have fluid and compressed form
and twisted forms
Heydar Aliyev Cultural Centre
 Location : Baku, Azerbaijan
 Opened: 2012 AD
 Function: public plaza for the
cultural program of museum,
library, and conference center

 Known for its distinctive
architecture and flowing, curved
style that reject sharp angles
 A continuous, fluid relationship
between building and landscape
 The landscape emerges from the
ground to blend with the building.
 The exterior surface becomes part
of the interior design too; as it folds Exterior side view of the structure

 Continued..
 The inward curl takes the shape
of stairs enabling movement
between the lower floors to the
other levels,
 - allows a continuous,
uninterrupted circulation.
 Floors turn into ramps and
walls, twisting into ceilings Floors twisting into ceilings

 Conclusion
 Combination of architecture, landscape and geology, the point
where these elements intersect by giving it a wave like movements.
 Fluid form creates uniqueness in the design
 Fluid is the continuous movement
