The project consists of a design for a sports complex for exclusive use by women which can be used as a prototype that can be incorporated in different neighbourhoods within Doha, Qatar.
It is distinguished by its external circular protective shell, by means of a thick perforated wall, which contrasts with the warmth of the internal glazed patio which provides ample natural light to the building’s interior.
This central patio, with its curved forms, contains a garden which acts as the hub of social interaction. The program includes sports facilities such as swimming pool, multi-use sports hall and gymnasium, together with other social activities including social club, nursery, games and TV rooms. The flexibility of use of the building allows possibilities to carry out different family events as well as a social meeting point in the Qatari society.
