phf{ : CHARGE POINT
Using the concept of modularity, allowing a space to grow by adding that allows us to create flexible spaces for different programme and activities. Modularity becomes efficient when we are working on a larger scale. Usually charging station and amenitiy spaces are seen as two separate units. By incorporating both of these spaces under a single roof a lively as well as functional space is created.
MODULARITY
EVs are essential for future transportation so are charging stations . Hence, charging stations must be designed in such a way that it can respond to given demand and site conditions.

SECTION
Excercise bikes that also generates kinetic energy to bring about green energy.
The provision of solar panels to power the charging station and green roof to compensate the built-up area.
