Drawing from the traditional dwellings and communal organization of indigenous nomadic groups, this youth hostel employs a staggered spatial composition in which guests are free to organize for gathering or solitude. A procession of private and semi-public spaces terminate at a central atrium, around which are communal kitchen, dining, and bathing spaces.
