The proposed plan emphasis on the emotional resilience of the people of kon . The design proposal looks at using landscape as a therapeutic medium to resolve these concerns through a structured program that involves the contribution of the inhabitants of the village. The interventions focus on two categories- Experiential and Productive Landscapes. The experiential landscape involves creating an aesthetically appealing, bio-rich landscape embedded in the framework of the village, allowing to reconnect themselves with nature and take a pause to feel a bit of calm in the hectic madness of their day to day lives. On the other hand, the productive intervention uses urban farming as a medium to involve the community to participate in the stress-freeing activity of cultivating their own food at an individual, neighborhood or small scale. The program involves creating and replicating a module which will impact the social, economic and environmental structure of the city.
