Yatra - Experiencing and enhancing thresholds

The site is a walkway leading from the parking to the college. It serves as a transition space as one enters into the campus. The walkway is designed with various points of pause around the existing trees to enhance the experiential quality of the route. A sense of texture, colour, movement and smell is evoked in the user as one advances through the journey. In the evening, the walkway acts as a respite where one can sit peacefully and observe the frolicking of squirrels and hear the chirping of the birds.
