Old Town Residence in Baku, Azerbaijan by ÜberRaum Architects

Article source: ÜberRaum Architects 

ÜberRaum Architects designed a full refurbishment of this Old Town Residence.  Converted to a high-end private house, the design features luxury materials including marble, hardwoods and onyx.

The new rooftop extension forms a double height dining room, and opens panoramic views from the terrace and living spaces, across the Caspian Sea and old town roofscape.

Clad in bronze, the rooftop pavilion’s surface reflects sunlight glimmers seen across its Unesco World Heritage Site surroundings.  Its sculptural form provides dramatic views, while clearly expressing the contemporary addition to the historic building. 

ÜberRaum Architects brought their expertise in working with historic buildings and with refurbishing high-end properties, having previously completed similar projects in the UK, Germany, Switzerland and Turkey.
