FINAL PROJECT : RETREAT HOUSE

In this task, individually, we have to design a retreat house for the same user as for the watchtower in Project 2. In this case, this retreat house is specifically designed for the ranger and through thorough research on the common spaces and basic principles of a retreat house along with study models, a design was developed. The final product is a 1:100 scale model with detailed drawings.

Conceptual model derived from the design of the watchtower.
Study model on shadows.
