DETAILS OF LIFT PIT

The GSEN Trophy 2021-2022 was insisting to understand the importance of the biodiversity, which is depleating due to todays rapidly developing urban spaces. Many cities accross the world are expanding the concept of urban spaces and architecture, are studing, and implementing hosuing requirments of urban fauna to recreate such forms.

This competition gave us a chance to imagine a radical idea for design of biodiversity or hapitat spaces for one or more species. We redeveloped an exisiting over head water tank into bird santuary, with the space for nesting and their basic requirments to attract the migratting birds.

The design incorporated with more environmental friendly material which will attrack the birds toward the site for the stay. The design also made sure to have human intervention into the site with disturbing their environment. The site also had various species of plants, trees, fishes, insects, and small animals.

As a designer and environment observer i would like to prose these kind of projects accross the cities to make sure all the species of get their own space of living which is not being disturbed by human intervention.

"ARCHITECTURE OR URBAN DESIGN CAN BE A TANGIBLE RESPONSE TO SOCIETY IS NEED FOR NEW WAYS OF RE-WILDING AND CO-EXISTING WITH BIODIVERSITY."

Tiny house competition is an event where designers, architects, builders, and DIY enthusiasts come together to showcase their creativity and innovation in designing and building small, sustainable, and affordable homes.

This design also inspires and educate the public on the benifits of the tiny hosue , such as reduced footprint, lower utility bills, and increased mobility.
