The proposal not just address the rebuilding of a broken community but also measures to empower the communities to withstand and sustain any future disasters.

The site is a Thazhanguda Tamilnadu, India, fishermen's community that lacks basic needs for the people. The impact of natural disasters like floods, cyclones, and rising sea levels is evident in many coastal pockets of Tamil Nadu. Thazanguda is one of the worst-affected coastal communities in the recent past. Based on the response, it was observed that the direct impact relates to the loss of employment due to the destruction and damages to livelihood assets, equipment, and infrastructure. The indirect impact relates to employment loss due to the disruption of the supply of raw materials, goods, services, and markets. Most active fishermen at sea and fishermen engaged in net mending, auctioning, and marketing activities on the seashore have suffered the loss of life, health, or property at some time or another due to tidal waves.

The buildings are designed as narrow volume and oriented to maximize daylight and ventilation potential,ensuring comfortable conditions in a disaster scenario as well as comfortable class rooms. larger public and institutional buildings capable of serving a greater portion of the population. will serve both as a permanent social infrastructure and a safe refuge in a flood event.
