Congress Hall

Idea projektu

The idea behind this project was to redefine structure in the building and How structure can define our building environment. The context is surrounding by mountains , nature and also the site gives us an opportunity of exploring all alternatives to get benefits from the sea view .
We live in a place where we have to beautify. As an Architect how can we make this place where we are beautiful and at the same time express the function of this place by an element that is little used nowadays. We think that the structure is only the frame that must support our building but we try to bring a new light on the structure. So in this project we give you several aspects of the structure instead that it is only used to support here then the structure will be an element highlighted here to make this building unique and which will become as an icon for this environment and an advantage for the whole city and its inhabitants.
