As Ulavi is situated in the midst of forest the availability of food from hotels or restaurants is less, so temple provide in Dasoha, but due to High crowd some people bring food voluntarily and distribute but these distribution places are scattered and have no proper place for interaction. so to deviate the crowd gathering at the main temple i’ve placed two areas in such a way that it diverts the big crowd and help easily recognize the space.

Site Plan

The site is located little away from the procession path and crowded area, so that it deviates the crowd. When the aggregation is distributed it will be easy for the people to easily locate the food providing areas. In this supersaturated context the priority is given to ease of acces of food during thr Jatre and a good space for seating.

The need of public space in the village during Jatre ,rich culture with lush green forest around and the corner site led to the formation of the structure
