River's Edge Retreat

The thesis design is inspired by organic forms found in nature, particularly the lotus and its relationship with water. The central lotus, inspired pavilion acts as the heart of the project, symbolizing growth, harmony, and community, while the surrounding buildings organically radiate around it.

The planning uses curved and flowing forms to create a sense of movement and continuity. Buildings are arranged around interconnected courtyards, water bodies, landscaped pathways, and gathering spaces, encouraging interaction and creating a strong indoor and outdoor relationship.

The overall design follows the concept of Architecture in Harmony with Nature , combining organic geometry, natural materials, water, landscape, and human scale spaces to create a welcoming and culturally responsive environment.
