E'rzal (Arabic for treehouse) is a built space on top of a tree. It is a structure that allows exploration. It can also be a shelter, a refuge, a private place to isolate and reflect, to recover and heal. Despite being commonly associated with natural and rural landscapes, our intention was to adapt the concept to an urban context.

Research

Through analysing a set of case studies in different residential zones in Syria, we are working on capturing how people are perceiving their own original houses after being left behind and being lived or occupied by the OTHERS.

This study aims to give a better understanding to the complexity of returning home. This will also highlight how critical are the displacement's impacts on the attachment and the ownership of a place. This study seeks to reflect on the future of our cities in the light of the conclusions of this project.

Living in the Old City of Aleppo: Our case study is a courtyard 5-rooms house in Shaker Agha neighborhood. This house is classified as historical, with many architectural elements that have been distorted or damaged. We are rethinking how to live in it again, revive its historical sense, thoroughly review the national and international policies with regard to restrictions of upgrading under the protection laws.
