The intervention is primarily a territorial one, this project aims to see the site of Al Uqair as one entity through interactions between nature and culture. The project incorporates the whole site by using only one architectural element, that connects the different existing realities. The museum is a sloping experience that extends from the old fort to the coast and into the sea. Then takes the visitor to the foundations of the Al Uqair fort and to the surface where marine life is endangered.
