A Mountain Sanctuary will be designed within the National Park in Argentine Patagonia as a space for pause and contemplation for hikers and mountaineers on their journey toward Mount Fitz Roy.
The MOUNTAIN SANCTUARY must be conceived as part of the natural flow of the trail, functioning as an organic pause within the ascent experience. The expectation is for a space that provides protection against the extreme weather conditions of the Patagonian environment (wind, cold, snow) without becoming a permanent or massive shelter.

The global offsite construction market—encompassing modular, precast concrete, and hybrid prefabricated systems—was valued at USD 172 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 225.7 billion by 2030 (CAGR 4.9–8%). In the UAE, government targets call for 25–30% offsite content in public projects by 2030; the UK currently leads globally, with 15–20% of housing using offsite solutions. Offsite manufacturing is increasingly promoted as the sustainable future of construction, with benefits including reduced waste, accelerated delivery, and improved quality control. Sustainability is not defined by how quickly a building is assembled. It is defined by how long it performs.
