A student in the second stage of the
Department of Architecture at the
Technological University
This work is from the
2020-2021 school year
As the first project in the second academic
stage in the Department of Architecture at the
Technological University

3. The project is about designing an Ath-
letic & Entertainment Facility including
people of all ages to enjoy.
It is located in Iraq, Baghdad.The site has
a distinguished location, whereas, the
Al-Jadriya
bridge is from its right elevation, the
uiversites of Baghdad and Nahrain near,
and it’s overlooking the Tigris river.
Besides that, the location is calm and
there isn’t much visual pollution or build-
ings there.
Green areas are plenty near the site, it
cover around 30% as well as water.
therefore, it’s perfect to attract poeple of
all ages. The site is 2560 sqm.

of kids games and benches that need to be
removed. As well as there are generators
under the bridge.
Scale
Materials
Elevations
There aren’t many buildings that surrounded the project location
most of them are far away enough that they may not have any
effect on the project however, the height of jadriyah bridge is
around 10 meters this high will give us promotion privileges
-Originally the site is a park for cars so there’s asphalt street
which contributes to the heat island effect.
-The street and walkways aren’t levelled well, so in winter would
impact the water flow to the swerge.
-Facade of the surrounding buildings and pavements are old and
dirty.
a good opportunity is that the location overlooks the Tigris river
directly which means the best views that can be the elevations
of the building is the front view ( the ones that located to the

Visual analysis

Since the site has a 4m slop toward the river the form should be
divided into different volumes each volume with its own activities and
functions and arranged in the site according to the slop
*Which could lead to gradation in the form
the nature of the
at least 7m in height

Form Analysis
Using light matériel’s for the celling with structural
beams to maintain a large open space with out
the need to disrupt the open space with structural
columns
Using flowing and smooth architecture to represent t
building and its activists
The nature of the spaces requires a high ceiling
*The swimming areas and the gymnasium would be
There shouldn’t be any spaces that require a lot of
weights
Above the swimming pool and the gymnasium,
because this kind of celling cant support it,
