In the heart of Almaty, set against the snow-capped peaks of the Zailiyskiy Alatau, stretches the campus of KazNU — a built embodiment of knowledge and wisdom, where contemporary forms merge with local context and historical legacy.The campus’s main building presents a strict and rhythmic vertical composition, with façades that play with light and shadow through the use of slender metal louvers. Nearby buildings continue this architectural language: horizontally stretched volumes with disciplined, rhythmic façades, and material choices that convey the lightness and transparency of the ideas flowing within.Together, the campus forms a cohesive system of public spaces, where traditional lecture halls and research labs are interwoven with open-air terraces, libraries, and coworking areas.KazNU’s campus is a space of meaning — each building speaks the language of science, culture, and time. Here, architecture becomes a conduit for ideas, linking past, present, and future. Its forms resonate with the spirit of inquiry, always reaching toward the horizon of new discoveries.
