Self Sustainable Hydrological Neighborhood

This project proposes a mid-rise, mid-density housing community where every drop of rain falling on the site is captured, stored, and utilized. By harvesting rainwater for drinking and daily needs, the community aims to achieve self-sufficiency in water and reduce dependence on external sources. Thoughtfully designed catchment systems and landscape interventions will ensure pure drinking water and recharge the groundwater table, restoring the site's natural hydrology. The housing will stand as a living example of how urban living and ecological restoration can coexist, creating a sustainable, water-positive neighborhood.
