Our House, In the Middle of our Compound









Life continues in between broken buildings, the newly built, and those under construction, portraying a chain of events: man-made and natural.

We (all of us) built a house for a family, in the middle of a large compound shared by 3 bothers and their family [16 kids in total]. The state of the compound is the direct result of flooding in these areas. Amidst the ruins of the old structures started our house project, which directly inspired the family to complete their whole compound before the coming of the rain. With our project finished, the remaining houses are raising at a constant rate.

  1. Love the images! Will be interesting to compare our research about small communities with your findings when we get back. We still need to process the lot. Nice work, also love the space syntax! Ours took for ages, so I bet you had a similar repetitive experience, brrrr. Bangal loves :)
