OPEN RIBBONS

The ribbons fold around diverse spaces: interior and exterior, transparent, and opaque. Some ribbons, like ribbon six are completely exterior. This provides the building’s occupants ample room to take advantage of good weather and the views to the Old City. Additionally, it provides the community with safe outdoor space away from the roads, where most children in Abu Tor currently play.
