NOUR’S SANCTUARY
Embedded Files
Tamayoz Award Shortlisted Entry
Year: 2021
Location: Tigris River, Iraq
Program: Internal school
Nour is our protagonist. Her point of view defines our approach. Nour comes from the harsh outside for a better life. Nour has needs and desires: to sleep, to eat, to play, to learn... to live and experience her world. Hence, this project is a transitional phase: Nour arrives as a child, and leaves as a responsible community member. Thus, the spatial experience is maximized and shaped by Nour’s playful interaction potential. Nour defines her own journey.
Making the ground floor a semi-open space that visually connected to the surrounding heritage build-ings, elevation by lifting the skin gives the place the ability to act as a Central Park for people to share knowledge, play around, and hold events and talks.
