Brief About The Project:
MADNESS & ARCHITECTURE
Madness is usually considered a negative term. My goal was to use Madness in architecture in order to solve irrational urban complications; therefore introduce Madness as an architectural concept.
For this purpose, I chose three sites that are considered urban taboos, odd in their context. These sites were chosen for three parameters: social madness, megalomania and terminology.
These three abandoned sites now serves as public spaces that includes urban functions necessary for a better lifestyle of the community.
