  Description

  Hello everyone!
  I'm an architect and a natural builder. I make houses with mud, lime and stone.
  I am working on my studio space that we made with natural materials with our own hands. We keep adding artworks and functional spaces to the studio! We also have lot of native plants and more to take care of. We are always working on the kitchen garden and we have raised beds to plant more veggies.
  The studio is on the outskirts of Jodhpur, and the border of the village of Gangana. It is a developing area so it is in transition.

  Help

  We need creative people to help with adding more artworks to the studio. It would be great if they are interested in natural building and permaculture. The studio mud hut, the stone bathroom and the garden are all work in progress so we need people who like to work hands on.
  It would be great if they know how to cook meals together. We like to mingle, cook, live, explore and experiment together and have fun while working!
