MaP3 - Fuiguig Social Center

Client : Local association ADA

Designer : Elizabeth Wardle (NGO Project manager) - MaP3 (Architecture & Structure)

Superficy : 320 m²

Budget : 18 000 Euros

Project end : 2005

This project was developped in an associative angle, in Figuig, Morocco. The main aim was to build a social center with few ressources.

In this part of the country, near from the desert, the temperature varies between 4°C in winter, and 46°C in summer. Temperature difference between night and day is really important, and requires a wide thermic inertia. The building's body is made of earth, reinforced by a concrete frame. The roof includes 4 cm wide concrete archs.

During summer, the building can be cooled down by humidifying the earth.
