Architecture is a field of creative excellence envisioning a sustainable environment but in most of the countries construction, architecture, engineering and artistic fields are still dominated by males. Instead of being valued for the quality of work produced, women tend to face gender discrimination and racism globally.

Forgotten in the terraced vineyard, a stone ruin with a curved space was discovered. Since the ruin was subtly integrated with the landscape, it became the basis of the intervention. The genius loci suggested the Fibonacci Spiral movement which was perfectly aligned with the existing wall.

This project is an example of how 3D architecture and space can be used in photography. 3D and photography can work together very harmoniously, complementing each other and helping to bring ideas to life. We used it a little differently - we were interested in creating models in midjourney ai and the results are amazing.
