Carapace  

The project proposes a lightweight and permeable structure that integrates light and wind as core  tectonic elements. By synthesizing raw material usage with passive environmental systems, the  

design establishes a bioclimatic symbiosis. The architecture functions as a transparent, sensitive  layer that blends into the natural flow while leaving no footprint on the land.

The structure is organized around an open-air amphitheater positioned between two natural elevations. This space serves as the project’s public focal point, where the community gathers, while the semi-open exhibition area extending between the stage and the main path acts as a transitional space that invites visitors into the creative process. Located behind the stage, the studio is designed as a flexible production space that can either open up and integrate with the performance area or function as a more controlled and private working environment when needed. The boundary between public and private functions is defined not by walls, but through the use of topography and level changes. In this way, the continuity of the valley landscape is preserved while a clear spatial hierarchy emerges naturally. The use of exposed concrete establishes a strong connection between the building and the surrounding rock formations, giving the structure a timeless and monolithic character.
