HATHIGAON
A SETTLEMENT OF ELEPHANTS AND MAHOUTS
VIDYARTHI, SANJEEV / BHATNAGAR, MEGHA / BHATNAGAR, GAURAV / BHATT, RAJAN

This monograph illustrates the processes of conception, planning, and building of Hathigaon a settlement for working elephants and the families that care for them in the Indian city of Jaipur. It highlights how the adoption of a strategic, design-centered approach can help create both contextually-appropriate habitation and an overall armature for all human and animal life to flourish in line with contemporary design sensibilities. This book would not have been possible without proactive collaboration among the authors, RMA Architects and the Architecture Foundation.
