Project 2_An artist's retreat

Introduction to Project 2:

I had to familiarize myself with a new environment. Namibia. I had to create a weekend shelter for Willie Bester. He is "regarded as one of South Africa's most important resistance artists. The context and site was very specific and i had to focus on being climatically responsive and responsible. The climate had n big contribution towards the buildings design and form. It had to be less than 80m², sustainable, something less tranquil. Everything must be part of the building design.
