### Overview
Located in an uninhabited landscape, the design entitled "Gathering" is conceived to enhance communal interaction among travelers and visitors. The project focuses on creating shared experiences and fostering a connection with nature, drawing from historical concepts of communal living where storytelling and bonding were central.

### Spatial Organization
The architectural layout comprises a cluster of modular structures arranged around a central communal space. This design facilitates gatherings by providing an intimate atmosphere centered on a communal hearth, which serves as both a source of warmth and the focal point for various activities. The central gathering area features a circular arrangement, adaptable to different group sizes and uses, such as dining and artistic expression. Surrounding the central space, individual cabins serve specific functions like sleeping and private retreats while balancing communal living with personal privacy.

### Materiality and Sustainability
The selection of materials emphasizes sustainability and harmony with the environment. Predominantly sourced timber is utilized for external cladding and internal structures, fostering a natural connection to the surroundings. Stone elements, potentially used in foundations, enhance stability and impart a rustic aesthetic. The strategic inclusion of glass maximizes natural light and offers views of the landscape. These choices reflect a commitment to eco-friendly practices, including renewable energy integration and efficient layout strategies, which further support a self-sufficient lifestyle rooted in ecological awareness.
