Project Idea:
The idea of the project to create comfortable spaces for humans and in harmony with nature
So that we are living in cities is a forest of cement, I wanted through the draft get people out of the atmosphere of the cities and live in the atmosphere of picturesque nature, taking advantage of the terrain, water, rocks and trees Nature are available in many of the region.
And out of the usual pattern for the construction of stables and riding clubs Palestinian lacking to accommodate and receive global international figures also it lacks the presence of large arenas and training centers having physiotherapy for horses and horsemen and the theory of school and the whole group in one area.
I chose the architect Zaha Hadid for her great interest in prensenting the movement, smooth and curviness, which suit the spirit of the project.
