Weaving Through Wilderness- Connect Experience and Sense

The concept behind ‘Weaving Through Wilderness’ is to Immerse yourself in the wild beauty of nature, where all your senses awaken. Explore the magic of navigating through the wilderness, where you can witness stunning views, enjoy delicious tastes, breathe in intoxicating scents, touch the earth with your fingertips, and listen to nature's harmonious melodies. Considering the unique wilderness and habitat for various species, the plan develops small interventions for sitting and sighting different species. Considering the site's ecology, the infrastructures use natural materials, such as bamboo, bavad stems, and dried-up trees. The project has kept some areas under conservation, thereby limiting access. Overall programs for the site include a nursery, trails, pavillions, watchtowers, and decks. To create a heightened sensorial experience, the planting palette along the trails and the night trail is designed with flora that attracts species or gives a particular smell and blossoms at different times and seasons.

Understanding the Site Characteristics

Mapping Flora Fauna along Gandhinagar Riverside and Mapping Existing Site Conditions

Gandhinagar is a planned city; the tertiary streets have lots of potential but must be harnessed. These streets act as a continuous cycling and walking route and connect to different ends of J road. Similarly, a lateral route has been proposed from Indroda Park to the other end of Borij Village.

The axos represent the various site characteristics and the flora- fauna.
