ARCHITECTURE
Kindergarten
As construction materials, various locally significant, colorful river stones, limestone, a small amount of black marble, and wooden elements were used, incorporating a synthesis of arches and rhombus-shaped forms.
Block-type residential building
In the exterior design of the proposed buildings, simplified versions of ethnic arches and double-pitched roof elements were preferred.
Market complex
The design reflects traces of the historical construction culture of the Karabakh and Eastern Zangezur regions. The main reasons for using forms and details belonging to the architectural heritage of the region—such as cornices and various small decorative elements as well as local materials, are their material and spiritual durability and the preservation of national architectural identity.
