My first approach to the site, presented on a site map, and indicated on the coastal strip of Beirut, showing the “ dahlia “ depressed area among natural rocks, and its connection to water.
fishermen and fishmarket presidents analysis, that allowed me to come up with a certain prototype used in the new master plan.
A zoomed in study on the ‘Dhalia’ area showing its before and current conditions. Introducing the various fishermen housing units on site , in both their present , and previous states. It shows the man made changes the site has undergone.
Section cuts along the site, showing the relation between the existing housing units , and the topography of the site . Housing units tend to take position along the less steep slope.
A study on the housing units, showing there relation to one another with respect to the site. A certain vertical connection exists among units positioned on the slope, with the upper housing units, and a horizontal connection among the units along the lower edge of the site.
Approach to finding the proper function that best fits the site. An Aqua culture, community based project, where the fishermen of the site can actually market their own product, through a project that host a fish market, restaurant, boat repair facilities, harbor, and housing units . Where fresh fish is to be sold out for customers right out of water.
Analysis that shows how my site is divided to different zones following a level outline, following the topography levels, I was able to divide my site into an upper part, an inclined, steep part , and a lowerpart.
New master plan, where small scale housing units follow the outline and topography of the site , extending all the way from the upper edge, down to the lower edge of the site.
Indicating the existing natural caves onsite, and how they are used by the fishermen to shelter their equipment.
