Loess: Final


.In the beginning there was a little fold

Our project is located on the first out of four plots on the Albert Promenade in Mitzpe Ramon. At its northern side, a path leads to a hanging balcony, a massive lookout facing the Machtesh. We desired a structure that will provide a new gaze on the Machtesh while not competing the balcony nearby. After extensive search we found an area in the center of the plot with a slight fold in the ground, when we looked around we saw that it faces a different, yet beautiful angle of the Machtesh landscape. We dug up, deepening and widening the fold, and unveiled a natural horizontal stone fit to serve as a sitting place.   After this revelation all we had to do was to construct a backrest and add shade.
