M.ARCH FINAL PROJECT | WITHSTANDING THE TIDES
AlexAndriA, egypt: the frAgmented city
Challenging governmental and industrial pressure to demolish and relocate residents of the Al Maks informal area in Western Alexandria, Egypt, ‘Withstanding the Tides’ strengthens the existing community using architectural interventions with a local circular economy at its core. Built with materials which will withstand predicted sea level rise, by the community themselves using earth brick, bamboo, timber from fishing boats, and left over rubble from previous demolition.
Re-establishing the connection between the residents and the canal, the project will withstand the tides both literally and figuratively.
