Humans are always trying to make the best use of solar energy to consume less energy and reduce environmental pollution and greenhouse gas emissions from electricity sources. In this project, we aim to use sunlight in the desert, desert, and similar areas. Desert areas have high and extraordinary potential, one of which is their tourist attraction, which due to the lack of specific routes and pre-determined roads, there is a risk of getting lost and consequently the risk of death.Project goalsA ) Using natural and biological light such as the sun and bioluminescence does not create light pollution.B ) Being a guide for tourists to navigate betterC ) Absorb sunlight and use it to supply the energy needed by the complex.

In addition to using sunlight, bioluminescence is used for navigation at night.First, sunlight is absorbed by the two receivers of the tower. Then, according to the form of the building, two shells with different angles, the light is directed to the primary light source by mirrors, both concave, convex, and flat, which exist between the two shells. They do. This source is charged by sunlight, which can provide the light needed by the service spaces of the complex to tourists and then activate the bioluminescence pumping source.

This complex is designed in the Lut Desert of Iran. Since in the distant past, especially in ancient Egypt and Iran, stars were used for navigation, the design of the site and the location of the towers and turrets based on this method, the design of the site represents the Big Dipper so that the building can be seen from the map Routing help .
