Making Living Places

Situated on the edge of the lake Nikol, the project attempts at enhancing the lake and the life around the edge. A public garden has been imagined that warps around the site gathering all the other functions like a public courtyard,hall and canteen together into a deep inter-lock, such that a new life is created along the lake. After identifying the latent centers on site, the design has been developed around them to achieve an overall configuration that binds all functions together. The whole project was designed in a group of 2 people.
