“Sadko”<br />

Where light and space blend into one.<br />

Located on an artificial peninsula in the middle<br />

of Baku bay, Sadko re<strong>st</strong>aurant consi<strong>st</strong>s of a<br />

<strong>st</strong>ructure where space, light, and materials blend<br />

into a crescent-shaped building.<br />

Glass and <strong>st</strong>eel caress curved and conic lines<br />

on an external façade on the sea, while the<br />

interiors develop around an amphitheatre. It is<br />

a three-<strong>st</strong>orey building progressively degrading<br />

northwards and by that shading the terraces.<br />

The re<strong>st</strong>aurant looks on to the bay offering a<br />

breath-taking view from the internal spaces:<br />

beside the high-class dining hall, it also includes<br />

a disco and a wide terrace.<br />
