EXP 2 Week 1


 A Brick Coloumn
A Concrete wall
Chosen Architecture: Sabramati Ashram
 This building gave accommodation to Ghandi and has many portraits of him. Very open, and consists of a series of repeated brick coloumns and concrete walls and roofs.

There are small details such as the tile roofs, the metal window frames, the concrete top, the tiled floor.

As said before, this building is very open and has many small courtyards that have vegetation growing in them.

Reflection:
What I found  very interesting was the amount of vegetation that grew in the Chernobyl despite the radiation that affected the building giving a very distinct look of derelict house but growing plants that  gave the impression of an area that is humanless.
