The mirage

Long description

Waste can be defined as unwanted or undesired material. These materials can be man-made or natural matter. Waste generally raises a negative emotion irrespective of the final transition product. For similar reasons it is at times difficult to accept the aesthetics when it comes from the use of waste for healthy and constructive transformation. This emotion is particularly strong in certain ethnic or culture groups. Therefore, to imagine waste as a future building material is not only difficult to envisage but will also need ample convincing. In order to perceive of waste as an opportunity for the architectural production process, it seems necessary to reconsider its definition, and introduce our own conceptual understanding of it and explain how this approach has become the base for the selection of the specific materials in this project.

But what if this trash could somehow make its way back to its producer? and make this trash become a benefit for the citizens and communities rather than considering it a taboo. This waste that is produced has the potential to be recovered and recycled into completely new materials thereby forming a loop in the scheme of production and disposal of waste.

This recycling facility is not a conventional factory. The need of this kind of a facility is imperative. India needs a highly scientific and automated mechanism to deal with the large amounts of waste produced on a daily basis and at the same time the soul purpose of the project is dedicated to closing
