Site:- Rann Utsav, Kachchh

My site is located a bit far away from the actual fair, near the sabras bus station, my first intent was to create a green cafe/space. The reason it sparked within me at first was due to the lack of greenery around the site

This is a close-up view to my individual site, it's located in-between the boundary of these two existing resto/resorts/renting tents.  The surface of the site is plain. 

The brick structure as displayed in the plan in what stands as a permanent structure, it acts as a kitchen with a garden in its back which supplies the kitchen/cafe with its supplies.

Meanwhile the outer part of the cafe/ the wooden panels are a temporary structure laid out during the months of the rann utsav when the number of people visiting the cafe increases.

The wooden structure is inspired by the layout of how a fence works, they're 2.5 m respectively and are different individual panels which are the same in  height but vary in lengths massively.

The roof is made of wood as well and it's placed on a wooden grid which is 50 by 50 cm squares and they're removable as well, the grid is placed into the main structural columns which are 150-150 mm respectively and also placed onto the mini columns dimensions 70-70 mm which have crevices onto it's side that lets the wooden panels to be placed. 

The planted trees and its foliage will provide natural shade and also help in cooling down the surrounding space.
