Text description provided by the architects. The project is a farmhouse that is located at the outskirts of Jerash; a family escape that is at a 30-minutes drive from the city of Amman.
The building sits on a hilly terrain that is cultivated with olive trees. The play of masses corresponds to the natural landscape lines with a fragmented composition that relates to the scale of its surrounding fabric. The grouping of internal spaces follows the massing of the farmhouse, while being connected through transparent passageways. The three masses are cladded with soft yellow, small-format stone that contrasts with the Ammani material palette, and mergers with the earthy natural colors around.
All material applied are local materials with local suppliers , with minimum cost required , it was one of the design’s goal , to create a simple , modern ,quite space out of the city were people can celebrate their memoirs with the minimum budget
