Water management encompasses the design of systems, infrastructure, and landscapes that capture, store, filter, and distribute water while responding to environmental conditions. Designers working in this area address both practical challenges of water scarcity and flood risk alongside cultural and ecological relationships with water.

The community explores adaptive water infrastructure integrated with community spaces, terraced agricultural systems that manage runoff, flood-resilient urban planning strategies, and material approaches that treat water systems as generative design elements rather than purely functional utilities.

Structuring the Urban Form with Natural Systems

Due to the need for incorporation of innovation to effectively manage services, resources and limited space, mountain cities acquire an identity that sets them apart from the cities in plains. Thus this thesis explores the idea of structuring the urban form around the natural water system to utilize the available natural features in the best possible way.

Rethinking Resilience

The project embraces flood as a natural phenomena as the premise to imagine the possibility of secure human habitation. With this as the central idea, the project defines resilience to be two fold- 1.to be prepared before flood. 2. sustenance and recuperating post flood scenario. In its execution, the project encapsulates this idea at three distinct scales.

A DoItYourself ToolBox for Kerala

People know their enviroments better than any outsider, so why give them ready-made solutions when we can give them the tools to solve it as they think is best? We aim to provide a ToolBox to deal with flooding that fulfill certain basic requirements so the community build it on their own, as they like and asuring their identities.
