A healing getaway for expatriate mothers in Qatar, which fosters healing and cultivates meaningful social connections as they embark on their journey into motherhood
CONCEPT
The design concept of the building is inspired by the bond between mother and child, with curvilinear forms creating a loving and safe space reminiscent of the womb.
These curvilinear forms not only add softness and fluidity to the communal areas but also impact users psychologically by associating curves with feelings of comfort, relaxation, and creativity. They also help with sound diffusion and echo reduction, creating a peaceful environment.
