Pearling Path Bahrain – Valerio Oligiati

Pearling Path Bahrain – Valerio Oligiati

2019

The site contains ruins that form part of the UNESCO Pearling Path. The entire building functions as the entrance to the cultural heritage and the foyer for the medina. It is an urban room for the people of Muharraq with the scale of a public park. Concrete elements are placed along the property boundary to form a new locus in the dense city.

Domus: Valerio Olgiati’s visitor centre in Bahrain honours the disappearing pearling industry
