The Neighbourhood Hub:
The aim of the exercise is to bring rich traditional practices and distinct
living back into the fold, into today’s scenario, not only in terms of Architectural
gestures but it also has to enlighten the perceptional sense of people.
Objective:
· To study various traditional practices, its roots, evolution, cultural values and
its relevance in the contemporary time.
· To identify a neighborhood in one’s close vicinity and study its socio-cultural
aspect and the needs of people of all age, gender, religion, etc.
· To design a place which becomes a platform for people to come together, a
place which creates a sense of habitat, a place which serves the existing neighbourhood as a shared physical facility, a place which connects
individuals and individual dwellings to habitat and at the same time a place
which manifests traditional learning, to one and all, towards the environment
by generating sensitivity amongst the general mass there.
