Idea of Coliving- Shared Spaces, traces back from time of Chawls in the western India, bording schools in the US and tenements in the UK.

Selfdevelopment with others Throwing people together: My kind of people/not my kind of people

The Veranda: A Disappearing Threshold Space in India 1) In India, the vernacular entrance veranda emerged out of a need for outdoor space that would be cooler than the indoors. To avoid the heat, people would spend most of their day in this space.

2) The loss of transition space between the private and public sphere has depleted the sense of community in shared environments. Structures that scoop out pockets for organic activity have been replaced by introverted buildings surrounded by mechanical public spaces.

3) Inspired by the koliwada community opposite to the site where every house has a small courtyard. these courtyards are open to sky spaces.

Metal rods are inserted into these holes, and tiles are fixed.

BIOSWALE • Bioswales are a key component of the site stormwater management systems. Bioswales are channels designed to concentrate and convey stormwater runoff while removing debris and pollution.

Bioswales can also be beneficial in recharging groundwater.

• Bioswales are typically vegetated. They consist of a swaled drainage course with gently sloped sides in.

• A soak pit or a soakaway is a closed porous chamber that is directly connected to a primary treatment unit of a building. It serves the function of letting the wastewater coming from the septic tank to slowly soak into the underlying ground.

• The greywater passing through the soak pit is subjected to filtration. This results in the settlement of smaller particles of effluents at the bottom of the soak pit. These smaller particles are digested by the microorganisms which are a sustainable process of degradation. The filtered water is then discharged out through the porous wall of the soak pit.
