Solar Kitchen

Solar panel mounted pitch roof

The snack lounge has a pitched roof supported by reclaimed wooden rafters. The Terracotta tile above is accommodated with solar pannels, which powers the space.

Solar Bowl

The Community Kitchen was equipped and it was fueled by the solar bowl fixed on the rooftop. The solar bowl converts heat energy into steam and it’ll be used for cooking.

Vaulted roof

The Dining area has a brick vault roof with broken reflective tile pieces pasted on top of it. This is to reflect away the heat and to avoid it from entering the building.

Community School & Daycare

The school and daycare are for both the public and members of the community. The school runs with Nai talim (Gandian education system) approach under which the students will be made to learn about the healthy and green lifestyle. The syllabus includes agriculture, waste management, energy management etc.

The Primary health care is zoned at the entrance of the community as it was iintended for the people outside the community as well. The structure is an poured earth /debris wall structure, which sits on top of a soound and solid random rubble fundation. To let hot air out and to bring in cool air, inverted pitched roofs are used.
