[@shubhamjohri9231]

I think sandstorms would be common in these parts. The jaali screens don't protect against sand and dust

[@sanjaypuri5281]

The screens absolutely do protect from sandstorms as well as heat which is why they have been used since centuries in this region . Go and visit to realize the difference

[@shubhamjohri9231]

@@sanjaypuri5281 You can just tell me how the screens protect against flying sand and dust (if they do at all), why should I go and visit?

[@user-do6tj9xi5w]

Excellent architecture is

[@HarshYadav-cj3yu]

I particularly observe that his designs have a lot of focus on how to maximize the walking area, you can see the snake like path of entrance, or even on top. I saw it in narsihouse as well where the entrance is very much not connecting the two points but let the entering vehicle move so that the people arriving can really appreciate what they are are arriving to.

[@TheDialoguesDesignDirectory]

You will see more of his design styles in our videos, do watch and tell us which one you like the best😊

[@SiddharthaJoshiFilms]

[@rahulsulge499]

Absolute crisp of thoughts. Defined conducive sustainable architecture and simple observation of how earth architecture can be put to best use with true expression of locally available materials. Turning artisans as the torch bearers of such a marvel! @sanjaypuri sir you would be etched in memoirs of the masses of Nokha!✨ thank you for being the reason to love architecture a little more.

[@TheDialoguesDesignDirectory]
