Centre for Tribal knowledge at Patalkot

Abstract

All countries, states, cities, towns, villages and hamlets are dependent on each other for some resource or the other. This forms a web of movement and a sense of belongingness for being a part of a bigger network. Patalkot, till very recently was like a void in this web. A self-sustaining world within this world. Now, with tasted urbanisation, the community is striving to be a part of this web. Geographical aloofness and lack of activity thresholds for tie-in with the web, is leading to a struggle on daily basis. My intent is to design this threshold or interface between Patalkot and existing web. Alongside physical interface, a link to economic and social loop is crucial and is explored for an architectural translation.
