CommunalCenter_Seeb1


The idea behind this project derived from sequences of detailed physiological research. From feeling and looking through thoughts and emotions, to introducing a new user and refining  these researches ,conceptual ideas were produced. The area given in this project is Seeb 1. This area is currently a parking lot surrounded by the souq and a beach corniche. With that, we came up with a taste of a mixed cocktail drink to represent the atmosphere of this site. Different mediums were looked,researched and combined such as mental maps ,user survey , activity mapping, programmatic diagram,spatial diagram to create a conceptual idea. The concept of this space is reviving this space from a mono gender dominated area with a huge parking lot into a more friendly pedestrian and family oriented area.The site is divided into four different zone with a central core which include seating, entertainment, shading, a small vegetable soup. The central core being a building and placed in the middle of the the site is lifted up a floor to create a relation between the different zones of the site. The structures concept is to accommodate and invite more of this specific gender (females) we are trying to push into this site. The building accommodates activities such as entertainment activities, galleries and different classes.
