The project employs bioclimatic strategies and 3D printing technology using locally sourced materials such as karshif (a mix of salt and clay) and palm based elements. The resort's design draws from Siwan traditions including domed roofs, and courtyards while adopting computational design for form optimization and passive cooling. Field interviews, climate analysis, and structural studies informed the proposal, aiming to preserve cultural identity, reduce environmental impact, and enhance visitor well being. The result is a context sensitive and forward looking resort model rooted in local resources and ecological responsibility.ETDapplication/pdfenIn CopyrightHealth and Wellness ResortHalotherapySustainable ArchitectureSalt Architecture3D Printing in ArchitecturePassive CoolingParametric DesignThesis
