Nomadism is the dominant social force in a growing city where dynamism replaces stasis.

The waterfall flowing down a steep, rocky cliff creates a constant sense of movement and dynamism, whilst the use of vegetation connects to the concept of a ‘growing city’. The sprawling form evokes a nomadic lifestyle and integrates with the landform.

Entrance

The ramp leads down from the first monument to the meeting space, the diagonal lines forming a dynamic pathway which travels in and around itself. This is enforced by the texture with more slanted lines, criss-crossing to encourage movement.

Meeting space

The overlapping staircase represents nomadism as it is spread out and varies in size, reflecting this changeable lifestyle often situated in wide open spaces. The open-air platform not only reinforces this idea but also allows the dynamic outdoor environment to infiltrate the space.
