Arquitectura - Centro de interpretación Omán

The Interpretation Centers belongs to the Oman Botanic Garden project in Muscat. They resemble seven different habitats in a 420 hectares plot, organized around the Mubarak, a mountain that rises like an icon in a sensibly horizontal topography. Every habitat reproduces a certain environment of the Omani vegetation. The location of the habitats in the territory is based on the natural structure of the wadis, rivers that runs only in the rainy season.

Interpretation centers are configured as gates, elements that represent a pause in the path, and an introduction to the natural environment designed.
