Nestled Abode: Harmonizing Bird Habitats and Eco Tourism

A peninsular site along the Cauvery river, by the Ranganathittu bird sanctuary, is an ideal location for creating a nature retreat for bird enthusiasts. This retreat will allow the users to experience varying levels of interaction with the fauna. The project aims to provide accommodation, leisure and recreation to tourists, researchers and photographers. The design is curated in a manner to allow visitors to experience nature while spotting birds in the sanctuary without disturbing their habitats. The landscape character of this space has been designed to bring more birds onto the site while also creating experiential landscapes for the users.
