The project is about seeing a harsh mountainous environment not as an obstacle, but rather a driving element of design, using snow, a natural element that accumulates naturally and cyclically, to bring heat and comfort to a shelter. First establishing principles on a prototype for a small shelter, those are subsequently adapted to the High Atlas of Morocco: while the Summers can be scorching, the snowfalls in the Winter paralyse villages, as the remoteness and scarce infrastructure isolate villagers, with snow and temperatures causing casualties. The proposal is to create a guide to introducing aggregations of the prototype in this region, encouraging the villagers to place and combine the modules according to need. This guide details how to build the edifices by hand, using readily available materials familiar to locals, all the while introducing the principles and formal technology of the prototype. Not replacing existing traditional villages, they would act as shelter for the villagers in the Winter, while providing them with a means to benefit from tourism in the Summer; renting out rooms for the numerous trekkers. This approach could to keep the Amazigh traditions alive and encourage the younger generations not to flee to cities.
