This project presents a deeply thoughtful and context-responsive approach, beautifully integrating the community’s traditional lifestyle, resilience strategies and sustainable construction. The attention to local materials and disassemblable structural systems especially the use of papercrete demonstrates both innovation and practicality, particularly in addressing displacement from riverbank erosion. The layout encourages social interaction through its informal, community-oriented circulation and shared spaces, which is commendable.
To further strengthen the project, future iterations could benefit from more detailed visualizations of interior spatial quality, especially how light and ventilation are experienced in daily use. Additionally, while the modularity and dismantling strategy are excellent, a clearer construction sequencing diagram could enhance the feasibility narrative. Overall, an outstanding and humane proposal that balances technical resilience with emotional warmth.
