The God’s Eye Sukkah is expanding on the requirement for a sky opening. The proposal spirals and revolves around a central enclosure (focal point) which corresponds to a large roof opening, emphasizing the spiritual significance of the structure.

The twisting formation of the sukkah creates two entrances/exits enabling the visitor to progressively experience protected space which celebrates the connection between the earth and the skies. The choice for a woven cladding highlights the idea of shelter family and bonding.

A major design consideration was the realization of the Sukkah 9,000 km away from the home town of its’ designers. The materials and construction methods have been consequently chosen to reflect Middle Eastern Culture as well as to tackle unpredictability and to allow high tolerances.
