Chintan Organic Farm at Kukma

Material / Technique • Stone masonry, Wood Understructure, Thatch and Reclaimed Country tiles

Mr. Manoj Solanki of Ramakrishna Trust was developing his organic farm and wanted to construct spaces where training could be provided on organic farming, office for its administration and a laboratory for experiments.

The utilization of natural materials was a key consideration in the design of the training space. Wooden understructure and thatch roofing were chosen for this area. As for the office and laboratory space, compressed stabilized earth blocks were used in its construction, along with thatch roofing supported by a wooden understructure. To add a finishing touch, mud plaster with a lime finish was applied to the walls.
