6. Schools should offer a place where children can learn not only about the world but from the world.
From new experiences and new interactions, and understand new ways of expressing themselves.
The form we have designed offers freestyle spaces to the children so that they can build their activities
around it and hence not only trigger but nurture their creativity further as well. From alcoves treated
cob interiors in the classrooms to the organic tumble down ramp in the play area, the freedom that
these forms provide to the though process of these children will make sure they are ever ready to face
the challenges of a similarly spontaneous world.

25. Deconstruction to my mind is the name given to removing all boundaries and eliminatingthe use of rules in architecture. Architectural creation can now
be based upon knowledge from any Field in life. The barrier between subjective and objective being broken, any formof prior knowledge can be translated
into a built form. This is where abstraction or codi�cationfrom one discipline to another comes in. The plan that I have derived in this case is also
an abstracting exercise, one that codi�es the existing master planning of a cadet collegecampus into platforms and frames, that capture the contours and
views of the mountainous region where it is placed. Critical regionalism for me involves unpicking elements from your context so that u �nally
discover the genius of the place or the essence of the space you take inspiration from, for theambience you are constructing. Through the materiality
of rammed earth and the 3d formthat one has to penetrate to reach the core of this space I have also given my own version ofthe hospitable spaces traditionally
existing in this Northern region of Pakistan.Although we can also not forget that inspiration in outher words intuition is but the relationships
that one forms through what prior knowledge resides in his mind, therefore documentingsomeone else’s design intention while unpicking is
impossible. Unpicking hereonly refers to each persons individual interpretation for the essence of the place. I have onlyprovided a trigger for ones emotions
relating to traditional hospitable spaces through thisdesign. The intention is to make them fully aware of the region they are in, even within a
contemporary form.
