MARIONETTES COMING ALIVE
As an interior designer, I singularly focused on creating spaces that are a joy to be in, to call up a welcoming sense of place where communities can develop well and are inspired by the wor1d around it. I focused on developing ideas that promote a better way of living and being.
As the UAE always encourage the production of a new culture and new ideas of projects it's important to Establish a new different place which can gather kids and Adults in one place, a place which revives old entertainm8flt sources, so I chose my site to be Cultural Foundation in the heart of Abu Dhabi according to its strong historical background My project "Marionette coming Alive" will emphasize bringing back the old culture of marionettes in a modern form.
It will be an idea for making a place in which users can go learn how to Manufacture marionettes through different kinds of workshops. There are also Workshops so that kids and Adults go and enjoy their time learning how to move and control marionettes puppets and making plays. Combining its original design of cultural foundation with new spaces and by adding the wooden touches inspired by the marionettes it will be designed to create a masterpiece reflecting the project's concept abstractly
