Project Description
*The concept behind this project and how it led to this shapes , ideas and working with nature and taking it from topography of the landscape
Step by step you can see from the zoning, shapping and modeling the site…
Also using laying effect because of the environment and how it decrease the hotness in summer days
*Best part to me is the recycled materials that we rook it from soil when we dig the ground
*The invisible architecture”
First.. the mirror cube that represent the museum to create transparency and hidden architecture, being the only prominent block in size and mass in the project..
*Also as not to affect the urban landscape of the place and not to close the field of view of the ziggurat , we can see the whole project is an_seen
*Let’s talk now about The path leading to the antiquities (The excavation path)
Because there are areas of antiquities in the excavation stages so far, so in order not to affect the taboos of the antiquities, the path around them was raised on a light structure bridge with columns only 4 meters high, so as not to affect the facade of the ziggurat , and it’s provided with electric cars that transport tourist from the project core to the ziggurat
