The covid pandemic had lead to different practices in Tuljapur, Maharashtra as Tuljabhavani temple is closed the economy had dropped and most of the people suffered .Revised practices observed were shops on temple street started partially opening as few pilgrims visited temple though it was closed. These shop extension were covered with tarpaulin or fabric for partially opening.
And due to this practices design syntax turned out to be the deployable scissor mechanism structure acting as shop extensions which can be closed and opened at different angles. This mechanism allows certain possibilities such as opening, closing and partially opening the shops. This intervention can also propose extensions behaving as canopy on the same street as the deployable structure is covered with translucent light weight fabric.
After the pandemic it can also be used as waiting area for pilgrims, when there is festivals and temple area is over crowded.
