We used terracotta jali screens and strategically placed courtyards to facilitate passive cooling and provide shaded, naturally lit spaces for students, balancing utility with a playful architectural aesthetic. Our approach to community architecture centers on the idea that public spaces should be extensions of the landscape. By integrating a new primary school and library alongside existing structures, we aimed to create a cohesive campus that feels grounded in its rural setting. The design utilizes passive sustainability to manage temperature, a critical factor for institutional buildings in this region. Terracotta jali screens offer ventilation while reducing heat gain, and the integration of open corridors and circular openings frames the landscape, encouraging students to engage with the outdoors as much as the indoors. The library includes an integrated outdoor amphitheater, transforming it into a versatile community hub that serves both the school and the wider public. We believe that architecture for institutions should be functional and sustainable without sacrificing the character or the storytelling that makes a space truly usable. ## About The Architecture Company We are TAC, a collective of designers who see buildings as stories. We approach institutional and community projects with a balance of idealism and realism, ensuring every structure respects its site while providing a functional space for the people who use it.
