ORYX

The ground plane extends seamlessly into the architectural enclosure, allowing the desert surface to flow into a circular spatial field. The amorphous, thin concrete shell basin is covered in a black glass ceiling, standing on three glass columns. Curved perimeter walls form a sheltered circulation loop, directing movement through shaded corridors and inward-facing courts. Views align with distant dunes and open horizons before the route dissolves back into the surrounding landscape.
