Project idea

The idea of this project is the prblem we are facing, archaeological remains are often experienced from a limited perspective, preventing visitors from fully understanding their scale, details, and relationship to the surrounding landscape.So the project creates an elevated archaeological viewing experience that allows visitors to observe the site from multiple perspectives. Through a viewing platform, a central void, and controlled natural light, the design enhances the visibility and appreciation of the archaeological remains while strengthening the connection to the coastal landscape.
