WORK AT STUDIO MADe

central mosque, prishtina

housing, belgorod

|

The aim of the competition is to create high quality urban spaces that could give this place a meaning that matches the importance it had in the city’s history.

I was in the concept development team. The main aim from our side was to maximize the sunlight, since Belgorod temperatures dip tremendously. Also we incorporated the terrain in the design to get the best out of the view.
