About
The Arada Transformation project reimagines a historic district as a living cultural palimpsest. Existing masonry structures are retained and articulated against new steel-and-glass insertions, creating a dialogue between the inherited and the invented. The master plan reconnects fragmented pedestrian routes and introduces a sequence of activated public squares.
