The hilly parts of the city have been used principles alien to the nature. It is highly actual for the land development  of Yerevan to create forms and volumes suitable to the nature and natural landscape.  It is remarkable that the area chosen for this contest is partly leveled hill. According to the design it is suggested  restoring and developing the outline and partly volume of natural landscape, by harmonious means with nature:  steep green wall area, green terraces, green roofs, water surfaces etc.

-The harmony of architecture also natural landscape.
-The use of nature related symbolism as a means of connecting architecture to its cultural context and to an earth-centered imagery
