HABITAT

- nature centre

Habitat is my bachelor project in the course Contemporary Architecture. The aim of the project is to explore and experiment with form and functionality using digital tools. The project is a nature center in Limhamn’s nature reserve limestone quarry, Malmö. Using the UN’s sustainable development goals as a starting point. Habitat  focuses on integrating rare species of insects into its structure to minimize the impact of exploitation on their habitats. Additionally it allows for a harmless interaction to learn about them, their habitats and the local environment. The form is a play on negative space where the cavities become an inversion of the building.
