A cutting-edge single-story building in Antarctica, designed as a multipurpose shopping and community space. The architecture mimics the organic forms of icebergs, with a curved, white facade and translucent sections that allow natural light to flood the interior. The structure is elevated on stilts to prevent heat transfer to the permafrost and withstand the harsh Antarctic winds. Inside, the design emphasizes functionality and warmth, with open spaces featuring soft lighting, insulated walls, and natural tones. The main atrium includes an art installation inspired by glaciers and penguins, surrounded by retail stores and cafes. A central skylight offers views of the polar sky, including the auroras during winter nights. The rooftop is equipped with research-friendly amenities, such as solar and wind power generators, while also serving as a platform for stargazing. The render captures a twilight scene, with the building glowing softly amidst the endless expanse of snow and ice.
