Which hence provides an order and a base grid.

Section - cutting a part through the fasade and the observatory

The dimension was taken as a solid mass which is eaten by the organisms creating spaces.

The excretion creat elements which appered like broken glasses.

Movement of the organism Eating and excreting

Pragmatically excreation was

further interpeted as the force of cracking leading to faceted surfaces.

Hence, there are no parallel structural elements.

To maintain the lightness of the stool, wooden cylindrical sections (3mm dia) and metal pipe of (outter -3mm, inner - 2.6 dia) are used, Metal here acts as a hardware and plays a major role structurally.

The seating is made out of MDF.

THROUGH THE ROADS OF RAJASTHAN

NAGAUR FORT : THE ROYAL BATH

RESEARCH STUDY (GROUP WORK)

BUILTFORM, COMMUNITY AND CRAFTS We inteded to take forward and observe the coexistance of the exteriors and the interior in total contrast with each other and to take farward crafts in contemporary world without leaving behind the traditional and cultural aspect of it. Keeping the roots intact with the freedom of the new to grow taking forward culture forward and reflecting the origin.

Beholding both aspects of the craft done by the locals and the royalty the state of rajasthan gave us an opportunity to see the transformation of the carft to ‘CARFTED-ROYALTY’.
