EXPERIENCING THE UNSEEN | Restoring turtle habitat

A minimalist intervention in a Peri-urban lake environment that utilities the existing lake character to allow for sporadic planting to enhance and create awareness of such fragile ecosystems.
Surat city is a fast-growing city where development is eventually engulfing natural areas that act as an oasis in the city. These are also obscured, ecologically fragile and threatened by urbanization. Since these spaces don’t reveal much in the first instance, the approach aims to create awareness about natural landscapes with minimalist interventions by sporadic plantation at strategic locations to support the existing natural character.
