A repetitive structural system lets the outer skin twist without custom made parts, keeping construction costs reasonable. The perforated skin and the self shaded canopy reduce heat gain and glare. Materials are sourced locally in Morocco. The layout separates guests, visitors and jockeys, while the horse track stays visible from the central green space.
