Brief About The Project:
The project is a model of a building that would be sustainable and resilient so that it could be able to function in case of future wars in a reconstructed area. The program of the project responds to the neighborhood where all buildings are residential with a commercial ground floor. However, the program integrates additional services that were not taken into consideration in the reconstructed buildings of the area such as rain water collection and reuse, food production, energy storage in addition to a designed structural façade that would reduce possible future damages and blast effects.
