Haji Ibrahim Nehramli, president of the Avesta Group of Companies,
promises that the Azerbaijan Tower, as the project is being called,
would rise 1,050 meters with 189 floors to dwarf both the Burj Khalifa
(by 220 meters or 722 feet) and the Kingdom Tower
currently planned for Jeddah, Saudi Arabia (by 50 meters or 164 feet).
That’s not all. The Avesta Group will be planting their tower on an
artificial island in the Caspian Sea, at the foot of virginal beaches and crystalline waters .
Construction on the Azerbaijan Tower is set to break ground in 2015 and
will continue onto completion in 2018-2019 at a cost of $2 billion. And
like all of the city’s other structures, the tower has been designed to
withstand up to a 9.0 magnitude quake. The Khazar Islands are scheduled
to be ready by 2022.
This is a damm rich country.....how about spending more to help the unfortunate...share your kingdom i guess..hehe

Okay...first of all i would like to introduce to many who might not know what this words represent :
A R C H I T E C T U R E
Architecture
I just couldn't understand why....in most cases when people asked me the typical question :
Ey...what you do for living? What is your occupation? Kerja apa?
When i answered : ARCHITECT....
...............................................................................????????????????????????????????????????????????
Next question they will ask : what do u do? u buat apa?
Duhhhh......
architect : Erm....i design & make sure buildings are constructed accordingly...
Layman : Ou....i thought buildings are MADE by engineers...saya ingat enginner yg buat bangunan..
Wake up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!How come?????
I thought this profession is well known throughout the world!!!Internationally!!!Globally!!!
But still, when i had a chat with security guards who guard sample houses, and most of them are foreigners, don't be surprise if they will have the same reaction....Telling them that you designed the building only make them wonder that you only choose the color scheme, door design & windows... They will have the idea that engineers build that building.
I'm don't blame the engineers for this.I even would like to thank them for all the hard work & support as team members to make projects a reality , structurally sound, mechanically & electrically functioning & most of all SAVE for dwelling..
BTW...a good job for all the consultants...
