A Place for Community Breathing

The site location had multiple ponds but day by day landlords eventually filled it to construct their multistoried houses and industries. This led to the loss of the area for social gatherings and the harmony between the flora and fauna. So the project works as a breathing space for community gathering, specially women and kids.

BIOPHILIC DESIGN APPROACH TO BRIDGE THE GAP

The environment, whether man-made or natural, has a profound influence on humans; it may promote or discourage specific behaviors in a given context. Most of the world's population today lives in cities and spends 80% of their time indoors, with limited outdoor access. Isolation contributed to mental and physical health issues.
