ITERATION 1

THE ORGANISATION OF SPACES WAS BASED ON A CENTRAL

COURTYARD DESIGN FEATURE FROM THE VERNACULAR
ARCHITECTURE OF MANGALURU
THE OPEN TO SKY SPACE WOULD BE THE PRIMARY AREA FOR
DRYING PAPADS, WHICH RECEIVE DIRECT SUNLIGHT.

BEING A CENTRAL HUB AROUND WHICH ALL ACTIVITIES

RANGING FROM RECEPTION, RAW MATERIAL STORAGE TO
KITCHEN.

THIS ALSO ENSURES THAT THE COURTYARD IS COVERED BY

BUILT MASS AROUND IT WHICH WOULD BLOCK WINDS THAT
COULD POSSIBLY BLOW AWAY THE PAPADS. THE VENTILATION
EFFECT IN COURTYARD ALSO TAKES AWAY THE HUMIDITY.
