A Walk Through Water
Tarun Jain
My drawing shows how water changes the ground in different ways. Rainwater slowly damages concrete platforms, tides move and smooth stones, and channel water flows into the sea, mixing land and water. This tells us that nothing on the ground is fully permanent, as it keeps changing with water’s force. The provocation is to design a shelter that works with these forces instead of fighting them. The concept moves away from static permanence toward a flexible design. This could be achieved by using a structural approach that embraces water as an active component—allowing it to cool, reflect light, or circulate through the design. Water can be integrated into the architecture through channels, pools, or filtration systems that interact with the structure naturally, making the shelter a living system that coexists with its environment rather than resisting it.
