Finally, we move on to the designing phase, from structuring to transforming the place. This last chapter shows the concretization of the architectural intervention in our study area, from the programming to the genesis of the project, using the key concepts and architectural intents identified in the previous chapters.

The objective is to design a project that guarantees a successful retreat for the selfquesters , helps them through the process of this spiritual journey of self-discovery while providing them with a mediative space that will ensure a deeper experience and interaction with both themselves and their surroundings. We will first intervene on the Ain Kanassira's circuit, which will be a contemplative walk that encourages self-questers to be more aware of the surrounding landscape, invites reflection within the self, and accompanies and prepares them for the project throughout the walk. Second, we will get to the main project, which will be a place for spending a retreat in the middle of nature.
