A modern tower, symbolizing the legend of a golden egg on top of the tree of life. This structure by Norman Foster is the latest addition to the skyline of Astana, new capital of Kazakhstan - where artificial trees glow at night, and a presidential vision has been made reality in concrete and glass in less than a decade. It has been called “mirage-like” for its jarring contrast against the land of the Kazakh Steppe.The giant tent-shaped shopping centre, was the brainchild of Kazakhstan's president, Nursultan Nazabayex, and was designed by the British architects Foster + Partners. An architecture marvel to behold. . . . #IID #ideaainstitute #Pune #kothrud #IdeaaInsituteOfDesign #fashion #Fashiondesigning #NATA #NIFT #NID #architecture
