The village design integrates nature.
Respect for existence became an integral
part of the design philosophy of the village
as existing material and even debris were
recycled in an attractive manner to create a
viable living and working space.

were reused as pergolas in the garden.
The broken tiles were used as mosaic work
for the toilet and built in seats
