Farm in House, House in farm | CEPT

The intervention is one module on the site that is being tested to see if housing and a business complex can coexist with a farm. The chosen site Thaltej ground was picked because it is located in residential zone 1 and has a need to generate economy in such a large area. This module is designed for the corner of the site with a 130mx130m plot boundary. The project is aimed at a group of people who wish to eat organic food that has been cultivated right away. The intervention is divided into two halves, with three stories on the bottom floor dedicated to commercial usage. Everything above the first story is a housing unit. The 8-meter-high open agricultural + nursery is preserved as a business & housing barrier. Three-bedroom and two-bedroom dwellings are introduced. More private farming for homes is provided via cornered farming as the farming area of 24mx12m is occupied by 6 housing units. The business complex has access to 8m high open farming, while the ground farming and landscape are the private property of the housing unit.
