This Architectural model is one of the prposals for the new government center in Astana, which became Kazakhstan's capital in 1998. The building concept was designed and developed by architect Bek Ibrayev and his staff. Its composition is bas on principles of organized space use in ancient turkic and hunnish headquarters. The "Senior Yurt," where decisions that affect the whole country are made, is kplaced in the center. As in ancient times, the main axes of the proposed building are strictly oriented on a north-south, east-west basis to secure the patronage of the higher powers and bring well-being and good fortune to the country and its leadrs.
