WEEK 6 – WIP

Resistance:

An implementation of a semi-permanent structure at a location where there is not already any existing permanent buildings may cause disagreement with locals.

The adaptation of the ger to become more permanent by infilling lattice with adobe may be disagreed with.

The use of granite may be challenging due to the limited machinery.

Purpose:

This contemplative space can be used as a gathering area for spiritual practice between locals and visitors.

The area can also be transformed into a hub for education, as well as where locals can teach their craftsmanship to any visitors.

What can we learn:

Perhaps this semi-permanent contemplation space does not need to have “permanence”, but celebrate the value of temporariness and the local nomadic lifestyle.
