Na'imeh Hisham L'malah

Na’imeh was mainly concerned with the liveliness and livability of Ein Qiniya in the future, particularly for children and youth. Recognizing that Ein Qiniya is urbanizing, she emphasized that residential areas should compose of detached houses perforated with maintained gardens, and rejected multistory apartment buildings. She imagined preserving the banks of Wadi alDilb as a public park with pools and other services. Socializing outdoors was important for her, thus she demarcated spaces for playgrounds, a sports club, cyclist and pedestrian paths. She also finds education and culture central, therefore she envisioned a creativity center for children, an amphitheater, a museum, and expanded the school. She also imagined spaces for public transportation infrastructures, basic services, and supply shops. When she finished her masterplan, Na’imeh commented: “I prefer rural areas over cities, although in this imagination I did almost everything that gets done in cities!”
