PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Con-cave is a spatial intervention that shapes the steep terrain of the site playing with
the infiltration of the light: gathering, concentrating and dissipating it through the earthy
sinuosity of interconnected underground passageways and tunnels. The varying
chiaroscuro embraces the spaces, highlighting the materiality of the terrain, the solidity,
and the different levels of humidity of the concrete walls. The light, blooming locally,
becomes a sublime wave investing the visitor and inundating the gaze with the history
and the culture of the Afghan landscape. The building opens towards the outside with
rooms and terraces only in specific locations, offering an intentional selection of
belvedere and sublime points of view.
