LANDFORM                    BUILDING

About Landform Building

The individual structures of the landform architecture group support each other through their different interpretations of how a project represents landform buildings. The projects are from various geographic locations, which gives them their initial diversity. Thereafter, the projects differ from each other in regards to how they function as a landform. The Museum of Islamic Arts and The Jebel Al Jais Mountain Resort for example are both of the same region, The Middle East. However, the resort uses the surrounding mountains and builds upon it in an effort to seamlessly blend into the topography, becoming a landform. The museum on the other hand uses geographic and thereby climactic and cultural influences not as a method of blending in to the topography but to stand out and exhibit it proudly as a form of Islamic Architecture. Thereby, Our exhibit stands to show the very unique approaches to landform architecture used in different parts of the world.
