shade & shelter by ohad lustgarten
israeli designer ohad lustgarten has conceived a self contained organic structure with solar plated rhythmic slats that are capable of absorbing water. the creation of shaded areas can be integrated within its natural surroundings, placed alone or within groups on exposed mountain tops or near hiking trails. its architecture draws in users from a distance through its unique shape, providing protection from sand storms and cold when closed, and offering ample space and comfort when open.
