Through the past decades Omani frankincense well known as one of it's most unique marks of the whole Oman heritage .
The smoke coming out from resin can be used in scenting cloths ,houses and also to repel insects ,even it could be used for some treatments by soaking the green resin and drinking it's water to cure stomachs problems.
Inspired from Oman's well known unique frankincense plant..we translated smooth loose movement of the frankincense smoke to architecture lines whether through the exterior main shape lines or indicating it by massive elevation screen that shows the actual smoke movement that creates kinetic movement shape.
the giant screen imitates the incense smooth vertical movement
