Understanding the relation of the Scottish cemetery to its surroundings, we felt that it is vital to redefine the relationship the community and the city shares with the cemetery.

 

The idea envisions at celebrating the existing cemetery and utilize it as a tool to uplift the socio-economic-ecologic status of the neighborhood. The projects aims at establishing a healthy relationship with the people and the neighborhood. The project proposal not only focuses on the conservation of the cemetery but also considers its potential to offer a safe and recreational space to the public.

​

The interventions takes into account various age groups of the society and is programmed accordingly. By providing plethora of opportunities to the common people, such model encourages them to take responsibilities of neighborhoods and become one of the major stakeholders. The project aims at developing a self sustainable model for the maintenance and development of the places like cemeteries or any other place which of historic importance.

 

The idea of the intervention in the cemetery is to be self sufficient is the sense of it’s energy resources and also provide electricity and water back to the city grid in order to develop an ‘inclusive and sustainable environment’.

​

The project attempts to build a new dynamic relationship between the ‘place’ and the ‘public’.
