A JOURNEY FROM NATURE TO BUILT

Making of an interactive environment of these two platforms (human & nature) where children can learn and explore with freedom in this journey of nature to build. The institution is programmed for 30 children aged 5-16 for differing durations of days. Looking at the larger context of Shreyas the school looks like a school village, where different chunks of Doshi's & Kamal Mangaldas's spaces are designed & placed which are connected with narrow pathways, open grounds and forests. The idea was to make builts along with the trees, keeping the sie diagonally open for larger views and free movement. Overall less footprint allows more open areas for children to run, play, connect more with nature.
