description

Migration has led to the rapid expansion of cities, causing overcrowding, infrastructure strain, and declining quality of life, while rural areas are being abandoned due to a lack of basic facilities. This project aims to design a sustainable desert settlement that addresses these challenges by integrating climate-adaptive solutions with urban development strategies, tailored to meet the needs of rural communities. The goal is to create a thriving environment in harsh desert conditions by providing the necessary resources and infrastructure to support a healthy, fulfilling life, thereby reducing migration and revitalizing rural areas.
