ECOLOGICAL ARCHITECTURE

The goal of this project is to create an eco-friendly shop design that can work for every climate and context. i came up with the idea of two interlocking shipping containers to provide a flexible and spacious structure that can fit for any environment. The design features one container sliding inside the other, allowing for easy reconfiguration of the space and creating a unique and engaging shopping experience for customers. the Shop will consist of two interlocking shipping containers, one sliding inside the other. The outer container will serve as the main structure of the shop, while the inner container will provide additional space and functionality. The containers will be connected via a sliding mechanism, allowing for easy movement and reconfiguration of the space as needed.

the strcuture provided in the design is simple and easy for constrction. any labour at the site can make it with minimal intervention and supervision. i tried to make some spaces semi open to have communication between internal and external spaces. and most of time there are cultural, religious and historical celectrations thay the community wante to make. on last thing that i considered is capacity building of the ommunity. i provided vocational training rooms .

The Hospital is designed to serve for 8 million people around the region with over 37 case per 1000 people. the main concept behind the design is derived from blood circulation which is associated with circulation and freedom of mobility. in hospital every user should have free mobility all around the building.

CONCEPT: BLOOD CIRCULATION ON HEART

cardiovascular diseases were not concern in ethiopia a decades back. but this day researchs shows that cardiovascular diseses became one of the deadliest disease in ethiopia.

We were give an option to choose from different specialisation Hospitals and my choise for cardiovascular was based on the data derived from WHO and EPHC.
