Brief About The Project:
Using a Fibrous network system inspired from “bones” and “ tree roots”, a research center for Osteoporosis and other bone diseases was created. The project exists at the edges of the city, in a desert, without interfering with the typology of the site and with a minimal foot print. The system is made of three fibrous networks that all work together to create the actual spaces by condensing and forming a thick wall for spaces. The wall sections are similar to our bone marrow formations.
