Entertainment Cluster

The project takes the Sahn as starting point. The Sahn is a traditional element of Islamic architecture. This courtyard is the space which connects the cir- culations of the building. It can be found in religious buildings and dwellings. Our modern vision of the En- tertainment Cluster implies a twist of this open space. The circulation happen around the building instead of inside it. This creates a promenade which allows visitors to enjoy the venue from every spot and diversify the personal experience. Likewise, this gesture creates a building more permeable, which can be accessed from any point.
