LAL DERA

This proposal to reimagine the ‘Black Taj’ in the contemporary context, projects a temporary set of water-treatment pavilions capable of sustaining long-term environmental and community programmes. The idea was to produce potable water and reactivate the gardens as living ecologies, while providing alternatives for those that don’t have access to either of these. Therefore, the project would work as a platform anyone could approach in order to understand water processes, exchange knowledge and act upon pressing issues in Agra.
