Nature Orientation Centre

Nowadays, people live in the concrete jungle and do not enjoy the beauty of nature and peace; they do not have time to escape from their daily routine. A site allows providing different activities in the nature orientation center. I offered hands-on activities so people could run their daily routines without running them. They can make this space a part of their daily routine. According to the program, each activity is connected in small courtyards, so there is a smooth transition from open to semi-open to close. As this building is for people to come and enjoy and learn different activities, there is no rigid entry; they can enter from any of the courtyards. Extended outdoor plinths from each space allow people to spread out indoors to outdoors. The pavilion receives people and creates a welcoming space for the people. The central courtyard also acts as an Amphitheatre, and each activity is spread out. The building opens towards the lake, giving visitors a sense of the lake while entering and creating curiosity. Each module is repeated in a certain way, but their functions differ. Projected walls allow storage for each part. The north side is open and provides fins over there, which creates a sense of enclosure.
