Work Retreat: at Pariej Lake, Gujarat

Nestled in the Pariej Wetland of Gujarat, the project is an effort to generate experiences and expression rooted in the context of the site; creating a back-and-forth between built form and existing natural elements. The stages of development created understanding of what gives the site its individual character, and how to coherently interpret a program to form meaningful connections.     This particular project seeks to employ various devices to manifest a design idea- one that creates spaces that stimulate the senses much akin to the way the natural site does, using built expression to advance the experiences on site.
