SHELL-TER

First Mars base placed at the bottom of the largest canyon in the solar system - Valles Marineris, located in its safest, water-rich place - Coprates Chasma. The base shape of the dune seamlessly merges into the local environment, allowing inhabitants to be in unity with nature. The memory of warm, sandy beaches motivates residents to further mental development and spiritual peace. The entire base seems to move along with the rest of the Martian regolith, and over time, through wind activity and regolith repositioning, the dune will take on previously unseen shapes, as the passage of time and the forces of nature slowly reveal.
