The water
Assets The Grand Octagon is the only resource of water for the entire village. Like the name suggests, it is a majestic Octagonal stepwell, located in the centre of the village.

Concept Arts The sense of detoriation in the stepwell space would be brought in through the disintegration of the Spatial elements in the stepwell environment. The major spatial elements, The pavilion towers and the columns would start disintegrating upwards. After they completely annihilate, there would be a brief pause, for the audience to reflect. Then again the disintegration would start, this time the floor itself. Here’s where the pace of the experience would slowly start to speed up. It is imagined to be vaulting along the crumbling envrionment like experience. This would continue till Muna reaches the bottom part of the well, the Kuva.

The Village The Village is a representation of Ahmedabad around a millenium ago. It was imagined as a floating mass of land to give it a fantastical visual in contrast to its present counterpart, The City.
