About the project (provided by the applicant)
We modeling the lines of passages and volumes in these maps obtained an orthogonal grid which had a rotation relative to the geographical north in comparison with the regular grid of modern urban planning. In order to benefit from the north-south breeze of the sea to the shore and rotating this network in the north geographical direction, the east-west lines were removed and its north-south direction was maintained.
On the other hand, inspired by the continuous and irregular volumes and maintaining the proportion of full and empty spaces in the historical context of this city, the spaces were designed in such a way that an integrated volume was created with protrusions and recesses. This porous volume, in the form of an intertwined set of volumes moving together is reminiscent of the urban texture and has provided the possibility of directing the desired wind into the spaces and proper shading on the terraces and parts of the yard.
