AYURU is inspired by the principle of arriving and landing in a territory of ecological relationships in a light and gentle way. AYURU is a species of bird. Inspired by the fluid movement of these animals, the forest temple is based on the principle of arriving and landing in a territory of ecological relationships in a light and gentle way. With a height of 8m and an external diameter of 16m, the Ayuru space offers a flexible area for different uses in events and practices.

The space blends into the l... More
