Brief About The Project:
This project is based in the Roofless village of Gharesa in Az-zarqa, Jordan. The project approaches the conservation and reviving of abandoned sites from the concept of reviving principles rather than buildings, those principles are reflected through multiple activities that has been designed to strengthen the relationship between the people and their land to transform the site from a neglected area into a vital point that pumps the life into the new village. The design concept revolved around three main themes; education, agriculture and tourism to combine the scattered existing buildings into a single more effective or coherent whole.
