Re-envisioning Garage
Architectural Question
The Garage has a repairing facility for the BMC trucks, These also get auctioned post their stipulated life and until then are parked on the site for months or years. While the garage is efficiently working it is unable to provide better living conditions for the people inhabiting the site during long continuous work hours. Also, huge amounts of is required on an everyday basis for the cleaning of these vehicles on the site. If Garage is a machine built of labour, tools and technology, the project asks can this become more humane by using the tool of Architecture?
