The proposed observation tower is located in a rural area and is designed to connect with its natural surroundings while serving as a space for visitors to gather and enjoy wide views of the landscape. The design takes inspiration from traditional farmland architecture, focusing on transparency and a deep connection to nature.

Architectural Concept
-
At its core, the design features perforated panels that offer 360-degree views of the landscape. This design choice allows light to filter through and creates a harmonious link between indoor and outdoor spaces. Visitors can experience the changing light and atmosphere as they move through the tower, feeling a sense of engagement with the natural environment that surrounds them.

Structural Integrity
-
The tower rises five storeys, with each level slightly extending beyond the one below. This creates an interesting visual effect and emphasizes the vertical lines of the structure. Steel serves as the main support material, giving the tower strength and stability. Below, reinforced concrete deep foundations help protect the soil and allow for water to permeate, contributing to the ecological health of the area.

Upper Levels and User Experience
-
The top level acts as a warm, enclosed space where visitors can gather. It features a natural wood fireplace that adds comfort and a relaxed atmosphere. A sliding-glass door connects this space to the outdoors, making it easy for people to enjoy the views. Each level is designed to provide open-air platforms, offering visitors different perspectives on the surrounding landscape.

Circulation and Accessibility
-
A covered stone-paved path leads from the surrounding ranch to the entrance of the tower, carefully guiding visitors from the natural terrain to the building. This pathway is designed for easy access while respecting the landscape. The lighting plan includes fixtures that ensure safety as visitors move through the space. The lights highlight significant features and help create an inviting environment during the evening.

The design draws attention to the relationship between the tower and its surroundings, where the perforated panels interact with light and create an inviting space that encourages visitors to appreciate the rural beauty.
