1. Sabha samtah

Sabha Samtah is a traveller's home which suggests gathering through levels within the fort area of Jaisalmer. Having studied the plinth in Jaisalmer as a spatial element its characteristics were used as a tool to develop the design. Spatial roles of plinth such as its monolithic perception, territory marker, activity generator were incorporated in the design, to achieve an interactive environment, a lending multiplicity of use in spaces. This home is expected to lend a bag of memories for travellers' who explore the city as well as spend some good time amongst themselves, feeling a sense of belonging.
