In the 1970s, Rustambeyova worked on urban landscape architecture projects for Baku, designing (with A. Rustamadze and G. Mekhtieva) the park in front of the Palace of the Republic (today, Heydar Aliyev Palace) in 1973, and a garden with a fountain and cascade (with K. Hasymov and G.

Among Rustanbekova’s architectural projects are a residential building on J. Jabbarli Street, Yasamal district, Baku (with Nazim Hajibeyov and Vadim Shulgin, 1974) and the Gulustan Wedding Palace Complex (with N. Amirkhanov, N. Hajibekov, T. Sharinky, N. Ismailov, and K.
